Im in need of getting some mental help and have no clue where to go. I know about Burrell but ive gone there and seen the reviews so im hoping there's something better around here. It needs to take my insurance so if you know of any good places that take it, that would help me out a lot. If you know of a good place but are unaware of whether it takes my insurance, please recommend it anyways and I will check!

Just found out the 26th annual GOTJ is this weekend.
Who’s going and do you have tips to share

To the random gentleman in a car to the right of me at a light who prompted me to roll down my window. And then asked “Hey, are you married?” And I answered “No” and then you said “Take down my number.”

That was actually really cool and surprising and fun and made my day. I’m sorry that after that I said “I’m sorry it’s a green light.” And drove away.

It’s not for the reason you might have thought, I’m a guy.

Does anyone know if and when the Brown Derby Wine Center will be returning to their original location on Glenstone? Construction on the remodel hasn’t started and they won’t answer any questions about it on their social media. If they’re not moving back, I don’t know why they won’t admit this new location is permanent.

I'm specifically looking for the kind for synthetic fabrics, or any other brand as long as it's a dye formulated to with polyester blends.

I have no idea where to get this sort of thing since Joanns closed, and I don't really have the time to order it online.

Driving around, I think of buildings or monuments that would definitely house secrets. (My dad’s favorite movie series is National Treasure, and it’s a bit of a family joke).

Or maybe there already is a real life “Springfield Treasure” hidden somewhere here? What would it be?

have a protection order and a custody, need help, I have little to no money, filled out form for Legal Services of Southern Missouri (LSSM) but they say it can take weeks and are overwhelmed from what I was told, I would prefer you message me please

any bars/restaurants etc. in town host a good trivia night regularly? preferably one with a decent crowd and a well-organized trivia format 😋

Hi! I live at Vue on Walnut and I'm looking for a monthly parking spot nearby. Vue currently doesn't have any available spots.

I'm hoping to find something within walking distance of Vue, as I use my car frequently.

If anyone has an extra parking spot, garage, or driveway they're willing to rent out, please DM me. I'd really appreciate it!

has anyone been to this festival in recent years? I am planning to participate as a vendor here for the first time, but can't really find any videos of it or how much traction it pulls.

Someone on another thread asked "what would Springfield's National Treasure type clues be?

That made me think it'd be fun to write a little riddle.

NOTE! There is no treasure, do not go trespassing. Just a fun little game. Although it would be neat to do something like this and actually hide a treasure. But not this time.

Anyway, here is the riddle, take your guess. I'll come back to tomorrow with the solve.

When Madison goes to the Market, A tree sits to the south and the west.

An apartment named for this tree, holds the view that is best.

Of the river that runs to the north, flowing off and down to the east.

Where it crosses itself in a sense, you finally are close at least.

On the ridge overlooking the view, on the land where children once played,

The treasure lies hidden below, deep in wild cat's cave.

Where am I?

Thinking of getting a social membership next summer solely for the pool…we live very close by, but don’t have any pool in our neighborhood, and the public pools aren’t great.

What can I expect/what is the vibe like? Anyone willing to share a rough estimate of the cost and is it worth it? And if you know of any other secret pool on the east side, I’m all ears.
