@alexiszotos @MoDOT It’s almost like continually cutting taxes has consequences on important services

It’s like the turn lanes still haven’t been touched since Monday.
The on ramp from Olive to Lindbergh is SNOW COVERED and dangerous.
When will @MoDOT finish the roads??
Alexis Zotos@alexiszotos
Olive Blvd is STILL a mess. This is crazy. And with everyone mostly back to school and work the traffic is crazy.

What a spectacular failure by @MoDOT_StLouis. On top of that they just disappear of social media and are not giving any updates on why some major roads are untouched and when they will be. KC and other districts seem to have figured it out. @MoDOT

@SeanCasten The problem is not democrat or republican. The problem is the system that we have in place with all the lobbyist and special interest groups that are affecting the bills. It falls on both parties to clean up their act. @elonmusk is just shining the light on the problem

Brief thread on how we got here: Since the GOP won control of the House 2 years ago they have not passed a single appropriations package into law. Government has operated at funding levels set by Dems 2 years ago via continuing resolutions every few months. This is not normal.

@BearingNicolas @Beganovic2024 I’d spring for a $6 g&t even if it had mid-grade gin and decent tonic.
English
@Beganovic2024 All of these fancy cocktails sound good, but from experience, they don't hit much harder than the cheaper basics.
Give me $4 gin and tonics all night.
English
One of these is a well known Washington DC restaurant and other 2 are in downtown west.

I’ve been to about 50 US cities and about 20 in Europe since 2021 and I can’t believe restaurants/bars in STL charge $15 for cocktails. Based on COL/income, it should be $7-11 tops here.

@GrowWithOttello @fawfulfan Running it in the private sector removes accountability to the public.

Here's the big three things Democrats need to follow to fix the problems in their cities:
1. Police fairly but consistently. You don't have to jail people for minor offenses, but stop and ticket them. Don't let quality of life crimes go unpunished.
English
@briscoe_les @Beganovic2024 I’m no fan of Gardner, but this entire post is pure speculation. There could be any number of reasons that the cops don’t complain or why she left the field, and they’d all be just as speculative if I suggested them.
English
@Beganovic2024 Very likely serious charges such as manslaughter or the highest degree assault. You simply don't hear the cops complain about him like they did with Gardner. If she was a decent lawyer at all, she wouldn't have quit to become a hospital administrator.
English
Of note: in 21 homicide cases, CA Gore has refused charges requested by SLMPD, that is already higher than any year during Gardner’s 2 terms and we still have 31 days to go.

@BobbyboFosho @CaraSpencerSTL Out state legislators have as good an understanding of urban issues as urban legislators do of rural issues. Home rule only.

@CaraSpencerSTL Hopefully the new governor will take the City police over.

Its Official!
Today my son Cy joined me as I swore the oath and officially filed to be on the ballot to serve as our City’s next Mayor. Over the past few months, a team of over 50 volunteers collected 1,945 signatures from voters looking for change. I’m so grateful for your support.
Early voting starts just 85 days from today!

@chriscleeland Good day. SR1891854 has been submitted for the tree debris. Thank you for the photos and for bringing concern to our attention. Stay safe and well.
English
@stlcsb can forestry or parks or somebody chip and remove all the cut tree debris near section L of gate wood gardens cemetery?

@Beganovic2024 City earning tax increase. More driving into the city

@ask_aubry Was that a post from the future co-chair of the government efficiency department?

@burques @AlanMCole With the truck idling then complain about how much it costs to fill the tank?
English
@AlanMCole The other group are people who buy $75,000 trucks and sit in the Starbucks drive thru every day waiting to pay $10 for “coffee.”
English
My non-online wife just remarked unprompted “seems like a lot of young people DoorDash restaurant meals for $60 and then complain about inflation.”
I nearly jumped out of my chair. One of Econ Twitter‘s most annoying discourses breaking containment into real life.
English
@HealthToFit is there a way to contact you for support other than using the “contact us” email in the app? Those emails do not get sent when I use that which is why you never answer them :)
English
This post is satire. Just to be clear.

Why do you they are making the weather so bad on Election Day?! Do your research. They don’t want you to vote.

@0xIHodl @shauncooley @kwharrison13 Discord is horrible for any kind of interaction other than immediate. Its threading is confusing to say the least. I use both daily for different things, and in one case it was a direct move from a slack workspace to discord and the discord experience is notably worse.
English
@shauncooley @kwharrison13 You are correct that teams beat slack for almost everything (let's start with the fact it can order recent chats at the top), but both get absolutely steamrolled by discord . It's funny how a "gaming" chat has more integrations, better calls and more control than business apps XD
English
If you find yourself arguing that your company will win just because your product is better, you should staple this chart to your shirt.
English
@shauncooley @kwharrison13 Teams is a steamy pile of poo. Consumes more resources than even slack and is an awful messaging experience.
English
@kwharrison13 Except Teams is better than Slack in every single subjective and objective metric, with the one exception of emojis.

@Beganovic2024 Even if kehoe wanted to do that he could not bc he is owned by the out-state caucus
English
Imagine if we had this type of support in Missouri….Parson isn’t this type of governor and it’s increasingly looking like Kehoe won’t be either.

Downtown Pittsburgh should be a hub of innovation, opportunity, and culture. Today, I’m announcing a plan to invest in and revitalize Downtown and help it reach its full potential as a great neighborhood where thousands of Pennsylvanians can live, work, enjoy safe public spaces, and contribute to our vibrant culture — with our Commonwealth’s significant support.
