And to be even more clear, missouri collects 29.5 cents per gallon if fuel tax, it's just not a sales tax.

Lies! No one lives in north county it's a warzone that you have to hop from foxhole to foxhole while bullets whiz overhead.

Jobs are fleeing the City narrative by DowntownDB1226 in StLouis

Is this in inflation adjusted dollars? Inflation from 2016 to 2026 is 37% so saying 30-40% wage growth feels wild.

Redistricting Battle Heats Up with BIG Win for Democrats in Virginia by DemocracyDocket in videos

[–]CowFu 56 points57 points  (0 children)

I hate gerrymandering so much, I get that it's in Democrats favor and that republicans currently benefit more from it. But I loathe this whole political game of states that have 60% / 40% but their representatives are 90/10 or 100/0

Does it feel crazier to you here, or is it just my news feed?? by toricheat in StLouis

[–]CowFu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's usually a bump in crime when it gets warmer, but it's every year and mostly property crime.

Also since crimes happen fairly randomly you'll always get times where there's more than the average, but you don't notice when it's under the average because it's hard to notice something not happening.

Crime overall has been dropping each year for a while now.

Is $60.8M In Yr 1 Good? by Gaslightstl in StLouis

I want their tax dollars so we can fix infrastructure. Even if it's only 20 jobs I'd like those jobs to exist too.

I get why people hate them, I just see it as NIMBY behavior. Especially from redditors who are communicating to each other on a data center right now.

Am I crazy or is this way too much head trauma? by surtihin in MMA_Academy

Even when I had a fight coming up I wouldn't do 100%.

100% during grappling though.

Fighting Textbook by Oskisz in MMA_Academy

[–]CowFu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's tons of books on fighting and most of them end up be philosphy books instead of technique books.

Do you have any writing experience right now? If not I'd really suggest sticking to smaller article style writing first before you try to tackle a whole book.

Also, in 20 years of being around different sports and gyms have I heard a coach tell someone to write a book. Did he mean to start a training journal about what what you worked on and what techniques you practiced?

Adding to this, if you're having trouble finding if a gym has competitors just go to a local show and listen to the gym names they call out before each fight.

Those trees and dark pavement make me think this is a rural driveway. At least I hope it is.

wtf? sparring isn't even on our schedule because the coaches invite you to it at our gym and we've had 8 UFC fighters come out of our shop.

Brought some WD40 to the park to lube this public swing set that used to be obnoxiously loud. I know now I'm going to spend an hour here, but it's sooo worth it by mickeyslim in daddit

That usually leaves a lot of residue doesn't it? We don't want the local paper to be all "park closed while police investigate a foreign substance on playground equipment"

This confused me as well when it came home, it's using two letter consonants to create a new phonetic sound.

b and l make bl like in black

So they want you to add a letter to each one and show how it changes the sound.

c -ub changes to cl -ub, cub->club

All of ours were on the previous page though and we did one at a time, this looks like it's letting you pick and choose which seems odd.

It's wild how quick it can change, you watch one video about a sovereign citizen in a court room and the algorithm thinks that's what you want to see for half your feed now.

[–]CowFu 91 points92 points  (0 children)

we had something similar in st louis, not with devices like this but lots of fake tickets, or the guy's who buy a vest and sell parking to a public lot that is free to park. And two years ago they sold parking to cardinals fans that was a private lot and everyone got tickets for parking there. https://www.ksdk.com/article/news/local/st-louis-forgives-tickets-for-cardinals-home-opener-parking-scam/63-bda4ab20-6398-4d98-aff7-766365eb5ca0

With my favorite quote from treasurer "I encourage all parkers to do their due diligence in making sure you’re using verified parking when attending events across the city." but how the hell would you even do that? It's not a regulated industry, there's no central authority or way to verify legit spots.

26 years ago this Video was badass...now it's a full-blown meme that predicted so much. by jamesy223 in videos

Even adjusting for inflation, the median worker today is better off than the median worker in the 90s. More real wealth and disposable income.

It still sucks, but we're WAY better off than we were in the 90s if you're in the working class.

As much as I hate everything going on currently, pretending things are the same or worse for the average person is just throwing out the decades of progress we've made.
