Missouri House advances amendment that would repeal state abortion rights The resolution, if passed by the Senate and then by voters, would repeal the abortion rights currently in Missouri’s constitution that were approved by residents in November.

Missouri House Republicans gave initial approval today to a proposed constitutional amendment that essentially repeals and replaces the state’s current abortion rights in the constitution.

Watts a goal?

All these injuries are hard to deal with, but we can’t keep starting Watts. He can run, but he can’t pass and he can’t score (even when it’s on the goal line). Give Zelinsky a run or shift formation.

Michael Hurley - Penguins
YouTube video by cool music for cool people Michael Hurley - Penguins

Sad to learn of Michael Hurley’s passing, the only songwriter capable, thus far, of making me feel deeply nostalgic for beans and fish bones. His music opened a world for me in my early 20s.

The pride of Fulton, Mo. and the chip of choice at Booches, the best burger spot in Missouri! I’ll keep my eyes peeled. I feel like I’ve seen them around St. Louis.

if you’re on the fence about replacing an area rug with a Black friday weekend purchase, your dog having a massive diarrhea accident all over it really has a way of greasing the wheels for that transaction

Jason, please, gift us a thread with links to all of them.

I’ve watched β€œHard Times” over a dozen of times, probably. My all-time favorite. But I’m less familiar with the others.

The usefulness of topic-specific lists kept me on Twitter/X for years. I'm trying to rebuild my STL local journalism list here now. Follow away. Adding people as I find 'em. Let me know who I'm missing.
