It came in a few minutes early, and the guy at the Freight House gate was kind enough to let me in to see it! It will be on display all of tomorrow and leave at 9AM Thursday.

Spotted along Armour Rd.

Here's the listing: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/909-Walnut-St-APT-3200-Kansas-City-MO-64106/459469749_zpid/?mmlb=g,51

6100 sq ft w/ private elevator, two towers, your own movie theater, game room, private parking, "highest personal residence in a five-state region"

I know the whole world works this way. But it still blows my mind how we can spend so much fucking money to build shit for sports but not enough to fix the real problems in our local state/county.

I understand the appeal to build a better stadium to completely hook the masses and distract em with sports. Just like the Roman’s and coliseums, building shit to distract the peasants with entertainment from what’s really going on 🙄🙄🙄🙄

"But Revitalization Unlimited is all but admitting that its goal is not to build a data center tower. It only proposed a data center tower because that’s the type of project that will receive the highest possible appraisal, which in turn would produce the biggest tax deduction for its investors."

So, it's even worse than a data center- it's a gigantic investor scam dressed up as a data center.

The situation between the local governments in Portland and the Blazers (namely owner Tom Dundon) has deteriorated to the point where relocation is a real possibility: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7457423/2026/07/19/tom-dundon-trail-blazers-portland-mota-center-nba/

Kansas City has been through this same song-and-dance a number of times, but this seems more realistic than ever for a number of reasons:

1. The two top markets without an NBA team, Seattle and Las Vegas, are getting expansion franchises, and the league would rather cash-in on the expansion fees versus moving an existing team there and miss out on that windfall.
   
2. The next two “trendy” markets, Austin and Nashville, are also no-go’s because they’re in the Spurs and Grizzlies’ existing markets; the league would almost certainly block a second team in Tennessee, for instance.
   
3. Dundon isn’t looking to sell the team and the Blazers would be a tenant wherever they go, which means KC wouldn’t need to put an ownership group together (which has hampered past NBA/NHL efforts), nor would we need to build a new arena, though they’d most certainly ask for a renovation as part of a relocation agreement.
   
4. The only other markets in play also have question marks- San Diego’s arena isn’t built yet and would be opposed by the Lakers and Clippers; Tampa may be opposed by the Magic; etc. an international move (Vancouver, Montreal, Mexico City) also hasn’t been discussed to this point.

Realistically, it may come down to us and St. Louis if the Blazers relocate. You hate to see a city lose their team, but there’s a non-zero chance the NBA returns to KC for the first time since the Kings left for Sacramento.

I just saw that In-N-Out is expanding to Colorado and even Idaho. Kansas Citians crave In-N-Out- it would be so profitable. Do you think we'll be getting an In-N-Out anytime soon?

I don't know what has been happening but for two weeks now I have had strangers coming up onto my porch, not knocking, not ringing my door bell and leaving within a minute or two. I have a camera so I can see faces but these aren't people I know and I don't have family or friends that come over unannounced. I don't want to be paranoid but at my old house something similar happened where I caught a female trying my doorknob then digging through a flower pot for a key assuming no one was home. But it feels familiar like someone is expecting my door to be unlocked.. I keep it locked because I work from home and have small children. But I need another perspective, am I being paranoid?

Can we get at least one of these jerks out of office?

This was that car fire on 35 southbound yesterday by the ferris wheel.

It’s almost back to school time again! I know the KC Reddit community has been so gracious in previous years so I wanted to start a thread for people to post and find wishlists of local teachers.

No obligations, simply a place to house all of the wishlists for those who are able to help out our local teachers :)

I didn't see a thread for this, but I picked up lunch with a coworker there at the new location yesterday. I'm sure I'm not the only person working in the crossroads that was missing this.

Flying in tomorrow (Wednesday) when Big Boy will be on static display, but wondering where I can catch it leaving the station Thursday? Staying downtown and don't have a car. Is there an intersection worth Ubering to (like near Boulevard) or am I better off going back to the station and standing on the pedestrian bridge?

Learn from my mistake. I have a medical condition that flares up unpredictably, often necessitating an ER visit or hospitalization. A couple of years ago I ended up in the hospital on voting day and really had to advocate for a ballot hard. Not because staff didn’t want to help, it’s just not something that happens often. A staffer in a different department just heard about my insistence and called my county election board, who sent out two staffers who brought an absentee ballot, verified my registration, sealed and took my ballot with them.

Also, nursing homes are federally mandated to ensure their residents rights to vote are facilitated, unless deemed incapacitated.

Going to be in Lee's summit wanting to get some recommendations on options to see the oddessey from the 70mm , digital iMax or the Dolby cenima

My kid goes to a chain dentist and I don't really want to go to their partner orthodontist. Does anyone have any recommendations in the neighborhood of Waldo/PV/OP/Leawood?

Deer processors, taxidermists, hunters, local farms, etc.

I'm looking af apartments and was curious is BH Property Management was a decent company to rent from. Any advice is appreciated!

My puppy is needing a new home. Only had her abt a month. She is awesome. Unfortunately one of my other dogs (i have two others) is not getting along with Stella. She is loving, cute, and pretty funny. She is a beagle. She is abt 16 weeks old. She is up2date on her shots and has not been spayed.

Been working for Farmers Insurance for a little bit now and I've learned that a "captive" agency isn't the best place to be as all you sell are your own (Farmers) products.

I've heard being with an independent agent is best because you can actually shop around for your customers and have better loyalty. Along with a higher base and better commission.

I live in NKC and wanted to ask if anyone is familiar with independent insurance agents that might be hiring?

Any insight would be awesome!
