Me: “I’m leaving to go to a meeting”
Daughter, 13: “In ripped shorts?”
And the student becomes the teacher.
. @stlcsb we have a serious safety hazard and lawsuit waiting to happen at 6157 Waterman. Who replaces concrete and doesn’t fill the hole? In the dark someone will step in this and break a leg or worse. I reported this previously and got no action - not even a safety cone
Hello @stlcsb In the tree lawn outside of address 311 Rosedale, 63122 we have a city-owned tree that was removed. After the workers cut off the trunk they left it in the roadway. Someone else rolled it back onto the stump just to get it out of the way. It needs to be removed plz!
. @stlcsb We’re two days shy of two months since reporting this. About a month ago, someone went as far as to grind out the stump and plant a tree. But the trunk has still been left sitting there ever since
. @stlcsb at 6157 Waterman we have a fall hazard on a public sidewalk with no safety around it. Looks like someone replaced the water line and now there’s a hole
On this day in my media feed: two photos from hundreds of miles away. Remote by @ayrton_breck / Drone by @liz_rymarev
. @stlcsb there is a water line break in the middle of the street at 929 N Spring
Hello @stlcsb At the intersection of Dr Martin Luther King Drive and N. Tenth Street, we have a Do Not Enter sign falling off the back of a Stop sign. The nut and bolt that was holding it in place was removed. This is across from 901 N. Tenth, where Dr MLK is meant to be one way
Journalism in the news. Dallas News merges with Hearst. Hearst ignores workers’ union contract, plans to eliminate 26 jobs. I stand with my former colleagues at @DallasNewsGuild in the fight ahead.

This is the actual order to free slaves that was delivered in Galveston, Texas on June 19, 1865, now celebrated as Juneteenth. This is the only known copy to exist; it is from the collection of newspaperman G.B. Dealey. The original handwritten version is in the National Archives
The St. Louis tornado path affected some of St. Louis' most impoverished neighborhoods, where people wtih no insurance, little money, and fear of looting are now hunkering down in their damaged houses. Story by Colleen Schrappen, photos by @LaurieSkrivan stltoday.com/news/local/metr…
