First, congratulations to Anne for the monumental achievement! Second, I love how thrilled you look. Something I've always admired about you is your deep appreciation for fellow crafters and how much you hype them up. The love of the game, I respect it.

Seeing this say Kansas is number one for candy corn reminds me when you see "Iconic dishes" challenges and it's chili and cinnamon rolls for Kansas. I need to find whatever spiders george ass lunatic is skewing the numbers because I've never, in 33 years, seen a Kansan eat either one.

Going on a road trip to Chicago next week, this might just be the playlist for it. Lot of really great songs here, I miss these days.

Please don’t buy our books on Amazon. If you can’t afford to buy them from a real bookstore or from us directly, pirate them from Anna’s Archive like God intended.

This made me realize there's no Goats song about clowns. Unless "Seven Hundred Unspeakable Names" counts, and frankly I'm insane for knowing that one.

I first encountered his artwork through Stephen King's Dark Tower series. Like creative napalm to my twelve-year-old brain.

Thanks to budget cuts handed down Ty Masterson, a very important Kansas institution is closing its doors in December. This museum has a 3 million specimen collection and decades of research data. They're choosing a football stadium instead. Save the museum! Vote Cindy Holscher!

Will you indulge me being a nerd for a bit? This is Frisco 4500, a 1942 4-8-4 Northern configuration steam locomotive built by Baldwin Locomotive Works specifically to pull The Meteor, flagship of the Frisco Railroad. It ran between St. Louis and OKC and now rests in the Route 66 Village in Tulsa.

Stopped by the famous Blue Whale of Catoosa on the way back home. The new visitor center was closed but it looks great! Shout out to my religious coworker who tells me God's gonna get me one day. Told her good luck finding a whale in the Midwest. I guess this counts.

Post show meal at Waffle House. I missed this more than I realized. To quote a hero of mine, Anthony Bourdain its a place where "Everything is beautiful and nothing hurts...a yellow beacon of hope". Its not a Waffle House. Its a Waffle Home.

Just wrapped Jen Silverman's Witch at Theatre Tulsa! What an amazing show. Darkly hilarious, witty, and punchy in all the right places. The cast did amazing. I got my playbill signed! Jen Silverman is my prediction for the guest spot at next year's William Inge Theatre Festival, so I hope Im right!

Stopped by the lovely Marigolds Bookstore in Bartlesville, Oklahoma as well. Ive been on a book buying ban but broke it for these. The Saturday Night Ghost Club is my October book club pick since its themes really resonate with what I like to write myself. Excited to learn.

First stop this afternoon was at Paper Games in Bartlesville, Oklahoma to pick up a small comics haul. Nothing I love more as a comics fan than picking through the back bins.

Eating dinner at Dink's Pit BBQ in Bartlesville, a great family-owned spot since the '80s. Had the Dinkster, a pulled brisket and hot sausage sandwich. The name reminded me of Bill Paxton, so being in Oklahoma made it the obvious choice. Shout out to their mounted moose. Couldn't resist a selfie.

First of all, I think this qualifies me for the senior breakfast. Second, I get genuinely odd stares when I tell people my favorite Weezer album is Pinkerton. Maladroit is a very close second. I like the weird shit.

You know things are looking up for Kansas when we have three viral moments. Between this, the Seneca Street Liquor jingle, and begrudgingly @dropout.tv posting their mean-spirited punch-down on Topeka, I'm hopeful Kansas can get some of the affection it deserves on the national scale.

First the beef industry, now aerospace exports. Bombardier has 3,000+ US workers and its American HQ right here in Kansas. The current leadership is actively tearing down the economic pillars of their own historical stronghold. How are they planning for the fallout? They arent.

I'm honored to earn the Kansas AFL-CIO's endorsement! When I’m governor, labor will always have a seat at the table. I'm never going to stop fighting for the everyday Kansans who work so hard to provide for their families, and who make our state so great.

I was on-call with the Visiting Nurses’ Association for a couple of summers in my CNA era. The admin’s push is twofold here imo: one, many immigrants among CNAs. Two, they’re open about reinstitutionalization. If a mega-business can’t max profit while reducing services, they’re against the plan
