Bluesky doesn't have a polling option yet, so just tell me who you're voting for in the mayoral with your choice of emoji or GIF.

I'm voting to re-elect Mayor Jones.
It feels so St. Louis that we've only given two mayors more than one term. We are quick to anger, slow to forgive, and punish with ease. We actually can't move forward when we start over every four years. We also can't tell the true measure of a mayor in only four years.

I think the mayor's stock would go up significantly if she endorsed a city manager for St. Louis. Let someone else manage snow storms and take the heat when things go sideways. A concession and a remedy would go a long way right now. @vdanielav.bsky.social currently has a bill for a CM.

The mayor's race is a tough one: one is stubborn to an alienating degree but feels trustworthy in many ways, and the other is pliable to an untrustworthy degree but is open to the input of others.

I need a remote job (full-time) around $50k to finish out my last year of grad school (part-time) so I can devote the most brain cells possible to being a student therapist to low-income folks in St. Louis (part-part time) and minimize student loans. I'm smart, capable and add value. HMU.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.
They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.
The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1,000 a month. A year later, nearly half of participants said they had housing.
Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.
