Or maybe don't try to shoe horn the issue in as a non-sequitor and take umbrage when called out?

they wonder why young people are leaving in droves.

Probably because they belong in a venn diagram with estranged parents that don't know why their kids have gone no contact.

Drinking bleach will stop you from getting any disease, too, but we're not suggesting harmful things to strangers on the internet, right?

Try reading Blaine's FB page and then imagine the only way to be rid of him was his retirement, and knowing he'll likely be replaced with the same or worse.

Can't wait to get my family back out of this shithole state. KC, StL, Columbia, and Springfield are ok but the rest of the state are loud and proud white trash MAGATS steadily voting to fuck over the population centers where all the atate funds come from.

This state is so bad the only way we see progress is with ballot initiatives where gerrymanderign can't defeat the popular vote. And guess what the MO house and senate are working on right now. Yep, making ballot initiatives harder to pass.

Saint Louis has been held back as a city for decades because StL city is in StL county and is prone to the state legislature's fuckery. Like when StL raised the minimum wage for the city. State blocked it because...they could.

The governmental structure of the City of St. Louis is unusual in the United States. Since 1876, St. Louis has been an independent city, meaning it is not part of any county. St. Louis operates as both a city and a county. St. Louis is the only city in Missouri which operates its own "county" offices. St. Louis is a home rule city, but it is not a home rule county, thus county functions and offices are subject to state restrictions on county governments.

As a resident I would like to refute this claim.

I can't. But I would like to.

Oh good, so Google has stopped all political donations and canceled all government contracts so they can stay out politics?

No? Ok fuck you.

That's a thing? Ugh

Well said, even if you are the grossest of schnapps.

That is an amazing idea!

We should make a site where people can set up their own internet homepage. Each person can have their own space on the internet! To give the users a sense of ownership let's call it MySpace.

I think my friend Tom will help design the site.
