I’m off work and I want to march in solidarity with our marginalized communities against the recent and planned fascist takeover of our government.

Is anything going on tomorrow?

Hi, may I please ask for recommendations on dermatologist doctors with affordable prices? My significant other has been having some skin issues for the past week, and I noticed that it continues to worsen. Unfortunately, I do have health insurance but he does not at all, and since we are not married, I cannot share my insurance with him. I know free dermatologist is probably impossible, and hence, why I'm looking for affordable ones. Thank you so much in advance!

Anybody have any good suggestions of any nonprofits in the area that help all those that the Trump administration is actively hurting at this time? LGBTQ+, minority groups etc?

For a kid sick with the flu. I have a 10 month and a 2.5 year old. There are a couple of confirmed cases of Flu A in one of their rooms. I’m just waiting for them to get it.

We’ve only ever been to Mercy because that was the only thing in network, now mercy and children’s are in network. My oldest has had hospital stays in the past at mercy and we’ve always had a great experience.

Her pediatrician is with Children’s now.

I know they’re not sick yet and if they do they may not need to go to the ER. We don’t take them unless absolutely needed. I just want to be prepared..

Contemplating getting braces again from SLU. I had braces when I was a teenager and from not wearing my retainer my overbite is coming back. My dentist told me she could do Invisalign on me for 3-4 months for about $3k but I don’t trust myself to keep my trays in my mouth and would prefer traditional or ceramic braces. If you went through the SLU Orthodontics program, how much did you pay and how long did you keep your braces on?

Looking to get a new roof we had a company that some of our other neighbors were or are using (who knows) but then they never showed up after the second time we had them come out for the estimates and pre roofing stuff.

I didn't grow up around here and only know the direct way to wherever I go. Weather being what it was, I was wanting to do some meandering today after running errands, but when I tried to get off my familiar paths, I mostly just ended up sitting at stop signs and red lights. Where do you head when you just want to tool around for a little while with the top down and the radio up? Any long and winding roads that don't really get you anywhere useful but also don't take you too far away?

I had it the other day when I was there and now I’m craving to make it for a dinner this week and the internet has been no help with what recipe it is or what Swiss chicken even is.

I’m looking to possibly move from my current place to Kirkwood. I’ve always thought that neighborhood was cute and whenever I shop there I feel like I see all different types of people. It seemed nice…am I getting the accurate vibe?

This is for St. Louis County. I put that in the mail five or six weeks ago and they still haven’t cashed it. And the check hasn’t been returned. Has anyone else run into this. It’s $1600 and I would like it to be out of my account.

Normally, it takes a week or two. This is week number five.

Hi all,

I'm taking in a dog from another state who was in need of an emergency foster. I just found out I need to pick her up tomorrow, so I am in a bit of a scramble trying to collect some items to make her comfortable, as I don't have anything on hand. Does anyone have a recommendation for where to buy an affordable crate (XL, she's 80 lb), dog bed, and supplies in stores? I'm in 63108 but willing to drive a ways.

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!

I was about to go look at it off FB Marketplace, but it was marked as sold shortly after. If you are the one who bought it. I'm willing to pay more than what you paid for it. This is a long shot, but I really want to get it for sentimental reasons to gift a close friend that would cheer them up. Please DM me if you have it. Thanks

STL knows what’s up. I live on a dead end street and found one at the end of my driveway. It makes me so happy!!!

So I was crossing Vandeventer near SLU earlier today. I'm about halfway across the street and some lady turning left in her big white SUV stopped just before the crosswalk, luckily not hitting me. She had her window down and was yelling at me about being on my phone (I know I probably shouldn't have been but I still saw her the whole way) and she pointed at the crosswalk sign and yelled that it was red and I shouldn't be crossing. When I looked it was blinking red with 12 seconds left on the countdown. So I told her to learn how crosswalks work, called her something, and then she kept adamantly yelling about the crosswalk sign being red.

Sorry about venting but my point is, just be careful out there. Some of these people are too dumb to know how crosswalks work and they're getting aggressively stupid about it.

Does anyone know why?

Thinking of building with McBride, does anyone have an idea of what their pricing was for certain finishes, upgrades, options?

Bonus points for Royal II and Ashford owners!

Hi ! Planning a mini trip to stl for zoo light exhibit and some exploring . Trying to pick between late March or mid April. Any idea or input which month would be best ? We’re in Illinois . So not sure how cold or rainy or warm either option is. Appreciate any help

Me and my girlfriend have been searching for a house to rent with a price range of about 1400. Preferable to find locations with utilities included but we know that wont be super feasible. But we’ve seen multiple homes owned or at least managed by hazel valley and we wanted to know from people who’ve lived in their homes if they’re decent to live under?

The International Institute, which runs the Festival of Nations, issued notice that it is furloughing all of its employees and has no timeline to start back up again. It cites financial difficulties and Trump’s executive orders. Here’s the notice:

This is a sad day. This is a good organization. And Festival of Nations is hands down the best festival in the City. Ugh.

This heat wave could’ve melted my brain, but is there a sample ballot for the upcoming local elections? I want to be informed and share far and wide because of how pivotal this election is for our city. For everything from trash pick up to the Rams Settlement.

Could you all give me some suggestions on a nice restaurant in The Hill to take my partner to this Valentine's Day? Thanks 😊

Hello all! My brother and his friends are spending a guy’s weekend in STL this spring. They’re in their late 20s-30s. Any ideas for fun things to do? I’ve said the AB brewery tour (however they are not heavy drinkers, so trying to stay away from bar crawl thematic), the foundry (which I believe has mini golf) and I know there’s top golf in Chesterfield. Anything else come to mind that is fun for a group? Thanks!

Hello! I need help trying to find a venue space for a bridal shower. It will be around 30 people, and i’m looking for a place that allows outside food and alcohol!

Any suggestions would be amazing!!

Does anyone have any info about this mural? I’ve been looking at it a lot recently because of the metro bs going on right now and it’s really interesting. I have no idea who did it or anything about it tho.

Anybody seen any restaurants doing brunch on V-Day? I know it's on a Friday so I'm guessing it's a long shot but I figured I'd ask here.
