I am looking for a good spot to watch the USMNT vs Belgium tomorrow night here in the Northland if possible. Not interested in going to power and light or fanfest. Will just about any sports bar do? Is there anything extremely recommended? Right now I'm leaning Als Bar and Grill as I really enjoy their wings but not sure if they'll have the World Cup on. Thanks for any suggestions!

I just moved back here, and I’m looking to meet new friends! Is anyone interested in a monthly book club in the area of Blue Springs / Lee’s Summit? I figured meeting somewhere like a coffee shop would be fun. I’m pretty flexible on books, looking for sci fi / spec fic / mystery / thrillers / literary fiction or short nonfiction.

very thankful for rain on this holiday - picturing some of you who spent half your monthly income on clown powder staring at the rain coming down is making me tickled pink.

Just need to get this out there so others can be informed. My spouse spent 6 days in the care of University Health’s Inpatient Behavioral Health center and it was the worst experience of a lifetime.

Obviously it’s already emotionally hard on the whole family for this inpatient stay to be happening in the first place but University Health should be embarrassed for the “care” they provided.

The amount of communication between the family and University Health was essentially zero. My spouse consented to the sharing of health information with myself and her mother but the hospital would share NOTHING with us at all. Not even something as simple as a “she’s doing ok”.

The social worker would never return a call and he was supposed to be the go between for the family. He only called on the day the discharge was supposed to happen just to shared that they were going to file a court order to extend the stay by 21 days only to then call back a hour later saying she was being discharged NOW.

They also never cared to ask who my spouses current doctors were or what medication she was on. She was prescribed meds that do not interact well with what she currently takes and current health conditions she has.

My spouse is vegetarian so they just gave her 3 Ensure’s a day and maybe some rice.

So if you can control it, don’t let a loved one of yours go to University Health’s Inpatient Behavioral Health center.

I found what looks to be a wedding band. I asked everyone near me if it was theirs and they all said no. Does anyone know anyone who lost theirs today? Have them DM me. I will ask them to retrace their steps on where they were today to see if it matches where I found it.

I don't see it on the socials yet, but I'm working out here and because of the weather they have delayed gates for 4 hours to 3pm!

Hi everyone,

I'm a student in the Information Technology program at JCCC and was hoping to hear from anyone who has completed the IT internship or knows how it works.

I currently work full-time, so I'm especially interested in knowing:

• Were your internships paid or unpaid?
• How flexible were the hours?
• Were you able to balance the internship with a full-time job, or was it difficult?
• Did JCCC help you find an internship that fit your schedule, or did you have to find one on your own?

I've already asked my advisor and am in the process of being connected with someone in the IT department, so I should be able to get some of the more official details. I was also hoping to hear from students who have actually gone through the program to learn what their experiences were like.

I'd really appreciate any insights or advice. Thanks!

Anyplace in midtown or the crossroads?

I came in town for the World Cup, and decided to stay for the holiday. I’m wondering if there’s anything cool or Kansas City specific that I cans or should do to celebrate. I’ve seen stuff at FIFA Fest and something in Independence, just trying to find unique and local energy type activities. Any and all suggestions are welcome

What’s your favorite place to watch World Cup games? Looks like fan fest closed today due to weather. My friend is in from out of town, and thinking about Power & Light watch party, but curious if anyone has gotten turned away due to it being at capacity? Also that open air atrium has a roof, yeah?

As far as bar options, during EPL season I watch at Strange Days and I like it when I have an optimal spot, but when they are busy the secondary spots have some not very optimal tvs. They also often don’t have food. I have not checked out the other soccer bars, like The Dub, Varsity Club, etc. Where do you like to go? Thanks!

Hi there, I’m not new to the Kansas City area but this is our first time living in a city! We’re very excited, and I’m wondering about any things to do, advice, cool stuff about the area. I want to get to know the neighborhood!

I’ve lived here for like two years now and I’ve been to one lake and pool and they cost money which is fine but my family and I are broke as heck does anyone know a free place to go swimming because of this heat. Any idea?
