Anyone notice that the moon has been slower lately?

I've been looking at the moon a lot lately, mostly from 9PM to 11PM (east Joplin), and I noticed over the past few weeks that the moon has been slower. Has anyone else noticed this, and is it a region-related astronomical phenomenon or maybe something else (pollution, etc.)? Thanks.

Needing a friend

In my 50s and I need a friend to text, maybe go out for lunch.

A little about me

I have 5 boys. My youngest js 14.

I have 6 grandkids 5 boys 1 girl

It takes me about 5 minutes to get ready. I'm not about all the fashion. I just go for shorts and t shirt. Whatever is comfortable

I'm not an outdoor person. I like the air conditioning.

I am married but my husband works all the time.

As you can tell I have lots of boys in my life and I need a woman friend to help balance all this testosterone.

We can cause change, see what other Missourians have done!

Dear Marshfield & Springfield we as citizens have power in numbers.

This Data Center project will destroy the natural ecosystems of the Ozarks, harm the efforts at vally watermill to repair the aquifer to drinkable water and triple your water bill!

The Marshfield Board of Aldermen meetings are typically held on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month at 6:30 PM at the City Annex, 915 S. Marshall St

THEY CANCLED THE CITY HALL MEETING ON MAY 14TH

They know what they have done and that their constituents are angry!

Marshfield Mayor - Natalie McNish and 4 other Alderman who sat idly by as this project moves forward impacting their constituents. These are ELECTED Officials, if you are a constituent of theirs Contact them today!

The Commissioners of Webster County who allowed this project to move forward are ELECTED Officials

Call their office today - 417-859-4250

SPRINGFIELD

Mayor Jeff Schrag

City Hall Meeting for June 11, 2026 June 25, 2026

I do understand that Springfield has no power in this situation but they can talk to others in power and have reach where constituents do not.

Contact your Missouri Conservation Commissioners!!!

Strange Hair Loss

Strange hair loss

My hair length is past my shoulders. It’s been this way for a couple years. 12 months I got an iud and started shedding hair and having tons of regrowth that keeps falling out. When I take a bath, I see regrowth that is between 3 and 6” floating in the bathtub. This hair loss pattern has been going on for months. I found this interesting so I took a photo. I removed my IUD last night. I’ll report back as the months go on without an IUD.

Other hair related woes after copper IUD

Graying

Dulling

Frizziness

Constant regrowth that is so short it stand up on the top of my head.

Thinning

Remembering Rezwan Kohistani

My daughter was a student at Webb City Schools when this happened, and I feel that the community should continue to honor Rezwan Kohistani, and not let his untimely death be forgotten.

I can't imagine the loneliness this poor kid felt during his time here, or the pain that his parents continue to carry, wherever they are now.

Rest in Peace Rezwan

Indoor place to walk dog??

I have a sweet corgi that really needs to go on a walk daily. He’s a little chubby. My problem is that I go to work at 4am and home at 2pm when it is too hot for him to walk. Our bed time is 7:30 pm and it’s usually still pretty warm. He will walk a bit then lay in the shade and he is too big for me to carry back to the house. I am wondering if there is any place that I am able to walk him indoors? He is well trained and loves people and other dogs. I feel so bad because I know he is bored. I chase his around our yard but he will play for a few then lay in the shade or go in the house. I need ideas for exercise or somewhere to walk/run off his energy.

Been trying to put together more local creative stuff around Joplin lately. 🎬

Are there any actors, musicians, models, or other creatives around Joplin that would want to be part of future local projects?
