Maybe move your little toy out of the pedestrian lane by Forest Park?

It would be SUCH A SHAME if one of those antifa-style runners or cyclists were to discover how affordable high-powered lasers and facial recognition-blocking glasses are online. I would be heartbroken, and I discourage anyone from even looking into it.

Anyway, thank you for all you do to keep me safe, Mr. Flock, sir! I wish you a very surveilled day! Hope they never stop giving you my tax dollars :)

Turned 31 and finally managed to land a job with benefits -- generous, at that. Incredibly grateful. Mostly because this means I can get my whole situation checked out for the first time in half a decade.

Any advice for navigating the world of providers, networks, HSAs, etc? This shit's new to me. Anything I should ask the doc about that might not be readily apparent given my age?

Shoutout to healthcare workers feel free to drop your fun stories here as well.

Will a base M4 MacBook Pro 24GB/1TB be sufficiently “futureproof” for someone moving into the webdev/software engineering field, or would the equivalently priced M4 Pro with a smaller SSD be a better bet? Don’t plan on doing much in the way of graphics rendering and such, so primarily concerned with CPU, RAM, etc. (at least, as far as I’m aware with my limited knowledge of the hardware itself, hence my question.) Thanks all!

Can yall send me the Kirk quotes most antithetical to the teachings of Jesus? Finally got my aunt to come around on Trump’s profession of faith being fraudulent and now i’m playing whack-a-mole with his more gum-endowed acolyte.

my first 35mm screening and my first Bergman. what an experience. so much of that dialogue will be seared into my memory. such a masterful union of raw emotion and levity.

would love suggestions on where to go from here in Bergman’s filmography? is there an argument to be made for the order in which to proceed?

(kurosawa is next on my list so feel free to drop suggestions on how to navigate his work as well!)

Cancelled the dog park membership after year one but the attached Kennelwood has remained our grooming and boarding go-to ever since. Seemed to be the only place we'd tried that could effectively tackle our husky shepherd's coat.

Recommendations now that they're gone? We're in Dogtown for what it's worth. Willing to pay for quality grooming and service. Appreciate any advice!

Have a friend whose aversion to American liberalism and interest in conspiracies has him dabbling in right-wing content. But our political chats are always good-faith and I think he’d dig the vibe of the show.

Funniest non-paywalled eps to send his way?

A few days late but are there any shelters or centers still in need of clean bath towels and/or undergarments? I sent a DM to the person who had originally posted about 12th & Pine Red Cross center being in need, but figured I’d ask here while I wait for a reply.

(Have already read through the master doc but am unsure whether bath towels falls under the category of hygiene products.)

Thanks in advance for any guidance!

I’m in the process of trying to sell a Honda and comparing private sale, trade-in, etc. Friends of mine have had good luck with “instant offer” sites like Carvana and Carmax in recent months, given the state of the used car market.

In the process of exploring this option, I came across SellMyCarSTL and my interest was piqued by their unique approach.

Based on my own research and the interactions I’ve had so far with their representatives, they seem legit to me. But I wanted to see if any of y’all have past experience, positive or negative, before I potentially move ahead?

(Also, hope this doesn’t violate the rules, but anyone is welcome to DM me about vehicle details if they are interes

I am a millennial American leftist. My mother is an incredibly thoughtful and caring woman who comes from an evangelical Christian background but, over the past several years, has increasingly looked to me for information and guidance on current events and politics.

I have been compiling resources to share with her regarding the latest attack on Palestine and would love this sub’s help in supplementing my growing list. Any medium would be helpful — long form articles, podcasts, YouTube videos, etc. — both for my own edification and for more effectively educating my mother and others in my life who express interest in correcting their understanding of the liberation struggle.

TL;DR Help

If this question has been asked before, my bad.

Currently trying to add some size to my legs, started a modified PPL a couple weeks back.

I’ve got a German Shepherd mix (high activity breed) who I run with out of necessity — at least a 5k but sometimes cracking 6 miles, at least 5-6 times/week. I try to take it a bit easier on leg days, usually slowing that down to a 30 minute 5k jog.

I realize that regular, high-impact cardio isn’t ideal for leg recovery and hypertrophy. Will it be detrimental enough to significantly hinder my growth? Are there ways to help boost recovery or partially negate some of the muscle damage? I’m very conscious of running with good, efficient form. The pup
