@SimonLaffont@the_bonnfire Most people visit a small number of large cities. I wouldn't go to London and Paris and think, "okay, i know what all of Europe is like".
@alyssaleann@skelemanclan@KevinEspiritu I think it's also worth noting that I'm fine having some B-level friends. If someone calls me today for lunch and I haven't seen them in years, I'd happily go. I only think someone is a jerk if they give B-level friendship and expect A-level.
@alyssaleann@skelemanclan@KevinEspiritu Sure, I understand. I'm just offering another perspective. Most people go through stuff we never know about. That's why I don't take it personally if people go silent for awhile.
@TinyWriterLaura I will never forget the makeover episode of Oprah where the stylist was saying to have jeans front pockets sewn shut and removed so they wouldn't "create bulk" and "ruin the line". FFS.
@skelemanclan@alyssaleann@KevinEspiritu This. I don't post my personal stuff online, and I'm private in general. I don't have the bandwidth to "maintain" friendships, that doesn't mean I don't care deeply about people. But sometimes I just can't.
Underrated aspect of Oli being on staff for the ASG is how/if he impacts roster decisions. I think Jordan and JJ will be in regardless, but I'd really love to see Burly and Jojo in the reserves. #STLCards
@gamefandave@k4maka@QuinnSTLCards Girls school sports took off with Title IX, and my sister played varsity in 1989. But pro women's sports are definitely seeing record popularity today! :)
@gamefandave@k4maka@QuinnSTLCards Sports is ubiquitous in schools these days. I don't know many women Gen X and younger who didn't play at least some sports as a kid. (That saying, I always sucked at basketball, so I think your overall number is probably accurate.)
@mr1llinois Yes! So much variety, and it's very accessible since it's a small city (drivable, bikeable, walkable). Everyone should come visit! You can even take amtrak from Chicago. Shameless plug for the self-guided architecture tours: https://t.co/R1f6YPCRIa
@tpwallisch@LesothoJohn@ChickenJoeSTL This article will give you a good idea of it! The gentleman featured was the same from our story. https://t.co/bQZOGgF6eS
@tpwallisch@LesothoJohn@ChickenJoeSTL All I remember was it was on KHQA, probably 2002 or 03, because they stopped tolls in 03. We didn't put stories online then. You might call? But their operation is slim these days. I visited last fall, and the current folks didn't seem to know they *had* an archive. ๐
