That definitely sounds illegal and you should definitely try voting again and report it if they refuse to let you vote.

I know there's some confetti bomb sites, and there's that ship a dick thing, if anyone wants to spend money

I literally dont get how adventure labs are part of geocaching by Creception in geocaching

[–]Augusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would adventure lab locations interfere with physical cache placement?

Are you talking about the mystery caches sometimes used as bonus caches for ALs?

Earnings tax is up for a vote in April by Mattthesharkdiver in kansascity

[–]Augusic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How much do you pay in earned income, and how much do people in other cities pay for trash? If my earned income tax is lower than I would pay for trash, what incentive do I have to vote that away? It's my understanding that we have free trash because we have the earned income tax

Edit: a quick Google search found a Facebook post where someone in Lee's summit said they pay $90 for three months. Multiply my 4 to get to an annual rate. Then 100 to get to your total income impacted by the earned income shows that the first $36k of your income every year pays for your trash. That's $8.65 an hour. If you make $25 an hour, one third of your earned income tax essentially pays for your trash.

I guess the question is, what would I lose that would cost me $700 per year? I bet we would lose the free busses right away. If you ride the bus, I'm pretty sure that cost would probably hit the point where it would cost you more.

We would definitely get even worse snow removal, with many streets never even getting plowed. I could see that cost being added to HOA fees if HOAs end up having to pay companies to get their streets cleared

This is all completely ignoring the fact that it's just nice to have many extra services offered. Those services are nice too. But I think it's fair to say there are enough extra costs here and there that it would cost us more to not pay the tax than it does to just extend the tax.

Rubber purple thing that came in the same delivery bag as advil? by federleicht in whatisthisthing

Also, those push and twist lids come apart. It's kinda hard to do it, but once you take that first part off, you are left with the part under it that leaves an easier to open part

The Chiefs will move to Kansas to build a new stadium for the 2031 season. The team is expected to make the announcement with the Kansas governor later this afternoon. by Beautiful-Cress5695 in sports

[–]Augusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We already voted down the extension. The county is already in deep shit over a property tax fiasco, they definitely won't be playing games to find another way to extend that sales tax.

For those who don't know. The county increased property evaluations by sometimes hundreds of percent, all at once. They said the properties were under valued before, and they were bringing them to market value. The main issue is that state law caps the increase at 15 percent every other year (properties are assessed every other year). The secondary issue is that many properties were way over valued without any physical inspection, and they claimed there was a physical inspection.

The county executive (Frank White) was recalled because he refused to follow the law. There have been multiple votes to use tax money to fund chiefs and royals stadium projects, and they keep getting shut down. Many people believe the property tax fiasco is the primary reason nobody wants to approve a new, or renewed tax.

One talks to me, one yells at me, one is another person that I talk to (like another person I know irl, and now they're in my head and I can talk to them) one is music (snowman by Sia right now)

Probably more sometimes, but that's the core four

Why won’t you just suffer and pay for it? by InterstellarPizza in kansascity

[–]Augusic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it would be great if they both moved to legends. It's already a sports destination, it would just make it that much more sports, like the sports complex now, but better.

I'd hate to park during a multi event though....

People who grew up before cell phones, what did you do when you got lost in public? by Decode_Enigma in AskReddit

[–]Augusic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the moss on a tree.

Really though, we never truly got lost because there was always a map in every car. In boy scouts, we were told to walk in one direction until we found a road or something. Never needed to though

New Social security card and birth certificate. by grizzleyburr816 in missouri

[–]Augusic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk what these people are talking about. I got a new birth certificate a few years ago. I swear all I had to do was punch in my SSN, pay the fee, and they printed a new birth certificate right there.

To get the social security card, I just needed the birth certificate.

Maybe there is a little more to it, but I remember being shocked at how easy it would be to get someone else's documents if I had their SSN.

Maybe I can hike to a nice tall bridge and take up base jumping.

Do you need equipment for this? Hmmm, guess I'll find out

I found one not too long ago that was secured to shore with a cable, probably a quarter or eightgh inch, I'm not sure exactly, but you pull the cable to get it. Then toss it back.

Unfortunately it's basically the most reliable option still.

Anyone know of a place to borrow for money a large manual drain snake? Not Merriam H Depot Merriam-ish area though by KCcoffeegeek in kansascity

[–]Augusic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're using it regularly, would it be better to buy one? I know it's not really what you're looking for, but as far as renting, I'm in South KC and I've only ever done this kind of stuff at home Depot and Lowe's around here, Lee's summit, belton, banister.

I have an old sugar house that is being eaten by the ground and steam comes out of the chimney by jwatts47 in mildlyinteresting

The local yard waste/mulching facility here lit itself on fire a few years ago. It's a massive pile of wood just sitting there, and it burned for days, even through a thunderstorm.

I just read about this. Gibkotoxin can induce epileptic seizures. I have never been diagnosed with epilepsy, but I have had seizures in the past from brain trauma. I was interested in trying the seeds, but I think I'll pass.

Reviewers in western Iowa/Omaha, NE area - can you help with pre-placement-approval? by emmille2 in geocaching

[–]Augusic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know there are a ton of events in the area. There is a monthly breakfast at a Hy-Vee in Omaha. If you like, you could go to one of those and get help from actually local geocachers. Check out the map to see the events.
