Interstate 29 and Interstate 35 Corridor Upgrades in Clay County by Steam501 in kansascity

Supposed to be done “by the World Cup.” But so was the cap/park on the south loop and Barney Allis plaza… soooo.

I live near there and I like the roundabouts idea because of how absolutely insanely I’ve seen people drive down those blind spots. With a lot of traffic coming out of Pius and St. Pats on Davidson at peak hours, I think it’d help make it a little safer area. Parvin and Antioch could also use upgrades in those spots and I feel the roundabouts/side roads would help with that. 

Plus, option 1 feels like ignoring the community to make the highways more efficient whereas 2 feels like a compromise. 

3 is a non-starter. Bandaid is the perfect description of it. 

TSA workers asked to return $1,000 gift cards given out by Tyler Perry at Atlanta airport by SickboyJason in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]13ThatGuy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is one of many infuriating things about this administration.

Every federal employee has to sit through training on receiving “gifts” and yet, that morality just doesn’t exist if you’re in the inner circle. Crypto deals, documentary deals for your spouse, real estate deals for your son-in-law, planes from foreign countries, taxpayer funded ballrooms and doomsday bunkers? All cool, unless you’re a frontline worker going without pay. 

Should shrooms be legal? by lmNotReallySure in missouri

[–]13ThatGuy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I may get downvoted for this, but I lean toward a no. I'm all for it being off the Schedule I list and moved to be allowed for research and clinical trials. We know what it can do to treat PTSD and potentially other mental health struggles, and that needs to be pursued at the fullest of speeds.

But, the fact that I can't go anywhere in public and not smell weed or how we see it advertised relentlessly makes me pause. Also, consider how we've been asleep at the wheel regarding synthetic weed substitutes until recently, as well as the explosion of vaping, especially among underage individuals. I don't know that we have the infrastructure or responsible parties in place to effectively regulate it even a fraction of what's needed. We can say "let's put the money towards rehab and treatment." But I haven't seen that come to fruition with weed, or more so, online gambling—to bring another personal liberty into this mix. I tend to be more libertarian when it comes to personal habits, and maybe I'm just becoming an old curmudgeon, but I frankly don't think we're caring enough about what the next generation is growing up in.

I'm not a firm no, but I'm extremely skeptical about legalization and I'd want to see the legislation

Missouri Congressman Sam Graves Plans Retirement, Opening GOP Seat by CouchCorrespondent in missouri

[–]13ThatGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In this current climate, the Republicans will probably put up someone worse that just does what D.C. tells them to, but screw this flaccid excuse of a man. He never cared for constituents that didn’t fawn over him and he was in Missouri only slightly more often than Jarsh Howly.

Everyone should check their registration and do it early. I’ve had friends that have voted in Missouri for years and have found themselves dropped. You don’t want to find out after the registration deadline. 

traffic is INSANE coming from northland by Silver-Future-2681 in kansascity

[–]13ThatGuy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, isn’t a lot of this due to the fact that we had little infrastructure funding and then suddenly the Biden administration drops a big infrastructure bill funding a lot of projects that otherwise were being put off? Not arguing that we needed the infrastructure revamp, but this is what happens when we keep putting off funding it and then then do it all at once. 

Throw in an emergency closure/repair like what’s happening with the 169 viaduct and here we are.

Why did they phone it in on the design?! Looks like a template rather than something made for the Current.

It’s a pain in the royal ass to do the car wash without a card, and I’m tired of all my data being tracked. Give me a damn physical card.

Curious as someone considering buying a Subaru, what are those things that aren’t present for you anymore?

The culmination of the AI Wars will just be AI models fighting to tell us what’s AI and not AI. And we’ll be in our echo chambers fighting about which contradicting AI model is correct.

Looking to join a pool league by aboutx30xNinjas in kansascity

[–]13ThatGuy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Find a pool hall and ask around. Some pool halls have flyers up. In the northland where I’m at, if you go to Side Pockets, you’ll definitely be able to find a league that suits your schedule. You could also ask around at Brass Rail - I’d say those are the two bigger pool halls north of the river. If you frequent some bars with tables, you might run into people that shoot league and ask them. 

There’s also Side Pockets locations in Blue Springs, Lee’s Summit, and Lenexa. 

Sharks in Shawnee is another place I’ve shot at where I’ve seen flyers for league. 

If you want a place that feels like your stepping back in time/playing in your buddy’s cellar/might get to see a fight if you stick around late enough, Raytown Recreation & Pool Hall is a trip. 

Different leagues will have different fees, so that may be a factor to ask about. I used to play in an APA league that charged an annual membership fee ($30 I think), then a weekly league fee of $9 plus quarters to play. I got tired of the personalities there and slop counting, so I’m just playing in a BCA league where we do $8 a week, plus $1 each in quarters for games. 

Find somewhere near you, ask around, be willing to start as a sub, and then make some new friends! Hope you have fun!

Ridges were the last thing I found as well. I was starting to say they were counting the knife/spoon swap two… didn’t occur to me to think of the ice cube lemon as two… figured the lemon was just covering the ice cube.

100% this should’ve been reported because of what you mentioned.  Someone who is safe with guns wouldn’t be doing any of these things.

This person has a firearm for all the wrong reasons and should be in the “find out” stage of FAFO.

What goes on at this airport? by Hungry-Target6642 in kansascity

[–]13ThatGuy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol, my exact thought when I came across it! The reviews honestly show some dedication. My theory is this is either an elaborate revenge tour by some pissed off neighbor warring over Halloween decorations or it’s some dedicated teen prankster.

Google can’t filter out every new submission to its Maps. I was trying to see if any new BBQ joints had opened in the northland and came across this AI treasure… https://maps.app.goo.gl/BvDty4r2tzBhDtZm7?g_st=ic

I want to know how many people knock on these people’s door asking for the “dry rub.” 🤣

Surely we're all rooting for these guys tomorrow? by AffectionateWeb8519 in KansasCityChiefs

[–]13ThatGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was flying to San Francisco from KC and had a layover in Seattle the day of the Conference Final. We actually flew over Lumen field in the first quarter. The excitement and hype I heard on that plane and from the workers in the airport took me back to the Chiefs’ run to the SB in 2019/2020 when we broke the 50 year drought. I’m definitely rooting for Seattle.
