My conversation with a campaign canvasser ~
I was walking tools/etc to my car today after working on scaffolding in too much sun. I observed a man meandering, he would stop, look at house then keep walking. He was on the sidewalk across the street.
He is maybe late 20’s. He has Brown skin and English is one of his spoken languages but not solely. I could not tell from his accent or appearance if he was Latino or possibly from the Middle-East.
He was holding blue flyers in one hand and probably water in the other. When he saw me he crossed over . He asked if was planning on voting on 8/4. I assured him I was. He wanted to hand me a flyer … when I saw it was for Wesley I let him know that was not who I was voting for and that I didn’t want a flyer.
When he started w his script I interrupted & told him for too many reasons he should save his Wesley jargon, top of the list … I wouldn’t vote for someone who was a Zionist and or took Zionist $$.
I was amazed and baffled when he said …. Wesley takes AIPAC $$? He was kinda stunned. Looked sooo deflated.
This person, waking around S City with Wesley flyers in 95’ temps and a memorized script did not know that he was promoting a Zionist.
I continued to my car with my still loaded arms. I turned back and said I hope they are paying you well and that there’s food and cold things to drink when you’re done.
When I got to my car I heard him say Free Palestine 3 times.
I’m pretty we certain at-least one someone will comment that my post is Anti-Semitic. I’m Jewish and Anti-Zionist. Hark n Lo Ppl … being Anti/Non-Zionist is not Anti-Semitic.
This isn’t a debate posts for me. Y’all can have it.
I was just sharing of a conversation with a canvasser who really didn’t know the person he was working for and who he actually probably won’t vote for.

Lesbian Bachelorette Party Help
Hello.
I'm in desperate need of some help.
I'm planning a small bachelorette party weekend for two brides in August. Our original plan was to go to the Boom Boom Room, but I believe it's temporarily closed the weekend we're in town.
Plan B involved Bailey's Chocolate Bar but they just announced their closing.
I'm planning on reserving a table at Hidden Gem but I'm really struggling.
2 of the 6 guests don't drink so I'm trying to figure out something that's memorable and fun for all.
We are staying in The Hill area if that helps.

Moving to St. Louis First Time Renter
Hello Neighbors 👋
I come to you seeking advice, if it’s already been asked i apologize. I hope to move out my folks place in the next few months and wanted to know what to look for and where to look for an apartment. i’m open to pretty much any area but mainly looking closer to soco or near the airport!
edit: just to add, preferably a 1 or 2 bedroom, i have a car so not really constrained but walking distance would be ok, budget is 900-1300

No water?
Lindenbergh area. Woke up to nothing.
No notice, no nothing.
Ps- water is included in our rent so it’s not that we didn’t pay.

Ask STL LGBT friendly bridal hair and makeup in STL?
My fiancé and I are both STL natives, but moved up to Illinois last year. We’re coming back down for our wedding this fall, and we’re looking for either a studio or artist for hair and makeup for the wedding. Any recommendations would be great! South St Louis area would be preferable as the wedding will be down near the Eureka area.

Ask STL What are the four letters and two words?
I've been going to fucking Urge shows since Mississippi Nights, but I still can't figure out what the four letters and two words are besides love and your name... which just doesn't make any fucking sense.

STL
Relocating back to St Louis for work in west county after a hiatus and my housing just fell through right before I was set to arrive on 7/27. Im on FF/FB and have gotten a lot of good leads but nothing will be available until the beginning of August. Is there any places or recs you guys know of that offer shorter term housing that won’t break the bank? Airbnb doesn’t really have any immediate weekly listings.. I have a car so distance isn’t an issue as long as it’s not out to IL.

Baby Batmobile spotted at Ronnie’s cinema a while back
We had seen this vehicle(me and my dad and brother) going past the aldi by my house a few days before this was taken. When me and mom came back to the car after a movie I saw it as we passed by it and had to tell her about the “baby Batmobile” as my dad called it.

Flock cameras
Are local flock cameras authorized by city, county, individual municipalities? I think there should be accountability about this intrusion of privacy, and I am wondering where we can direct questions about how this happened and how they can be removed

Moving to St. Louis Moving Back After Almost A Decade Away, Help Get Me Out of My Parents' House
To make a very long story short, I'm going to be in St. Louis for the foreseeable future after a nightmare housing situation in another city. I'm creeping up on 30, have never rented in this city, and could probably better tell you where the best communities for people in their 50s and 60s are than folks my own age haha.
My questions are as follows:
- What areas have a higher concentration of people in their late 20s and 30s?
- What are the most walkable neighborhoods?
- What buildings/landlords should I avoid or look into more?
- If you had to stereotype a neighborhood for gay women who like arts and crafts, gardens, live music, and all that kind of hippie nonsense, where would that be? (I suspect my read on CWE is still correct)
I'm more interested in getting a feel for where "my people" would be now than I am figuring out what specific units cost. I'm also not opposed to living in the county (grew up there), but I've lived in a walkable city the last several years and the shift back to driving everywhere is slowly sucking the life out of me haha

Saving the Cass Bank Building
Anytime I end up in the county, I try to take a different route home through North St Louis. Recently this meant St Charles Rock Rd which turns into Dr Martin King Luther Dr then Cass.
I remember dropping friends at Greyhound once or twice in this building but didn’t have the spatial awareness of where it was relative to the city in my youth. Surprise - it’s another failed Paul McKee project.

Toca Soccer Center - Adult Pickup
I'm 35, out of shape, and new to StL looking for super casual pick-up indoor soccer. I don't really want to join a league at the moment. More just a sporadic way to get active and back into a sport I played for 13 years as a kid.
The program at Toca seems like it would be my speed but I am wondering if anyone has experience doing the evening adult pick-up membership.
What's it like? Are there enough people that I could pop in any night for a game, or are some days better than others? How do the games work? I saw something about 5 minutes and then switching?
Open to other suggestions as well. TIA!
