as promised, I am here to rage about Marianne Jean-Baptiste—named by the New York Film Critics Circle, the LA Film Critics Association and the National Society of Film Critics as the best actress of 2024—being completely ignored by the Oscars. I doubt voters even watched Hard Truths.

ICYMI, a new Chick-fil-A is in the works for south #CoMo. If you've seen or endured the lines at the Shoppes at Stadium spot, a second location was a long time coming. With Trader Joe's heading into that area, this should relieve congestion a bit. Maybe. www.columbiamissourian.com/news/local/p...
