Take the D bus downtown, walk 2 blocks north. You'll see a guy in a red hat and green jacket standing on the corner he'll introduce you to Jeff. Jeff is hands down the best trust me, the man could find the exact middle of 1.73 inches without a ruler while doing a prince albert for me.

Was headed north on Campbell the other day on this same block when a truck turned towards me, going the wrong way. I honked and flashed my lights and all I got in response was a slight wave, like “yeah, yeah, calm down”. It then occurred to me that this driver must do that all the time—purposefully drive the wrong way into oncoming traffic simply because driving around the block would be inconvenient to them.

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. I have lived in 12 states/several dozen cities and 2 countries and have never seen such selfish, maniacal drivers. I have lived inside the beltways of DC and Houston! Springfield needs to get its shit together.

There is a hotel. On Glenstone close to the Iceman shop. Half a block away from the cemetery. So many drugs and prostitution possibly. I am not sure honestly. Keep to yourself and sleep, and smoke outside and just keep to yourself.

I guess a lot of hotels won't rent rooms to locals. Apparently this (drunk?) person wants to rent a room, but they live nearby and can't find a hotel that will rent to them. It's legal for hotels to refuse to rent to anyone who lives within 40 miles of the hotel, according to this.

You do realize that separate things can be true at the same time right? Someone doesn't necessarily have to be stiffing a service worker to pay for the meal of the person behind them, they could have also given the entire kitchen staff $100 a piece on the way through, and also helped Josh Hawley escape the capitol on January sixth after he called, sobbing, afraid for his life from the horror he helped cultivate.

Just pointing out, you come across a bit needlessly hostile, even though I agree with what you're saying.
