The OG mayor of Lawrence, Kansas. Abolitionist, Colonel, Jayhawk, Statesman, beard aficionado, dead since 1891. No love for bushwhackers. #LFK

Tough night for Flory.

Actually, it's weirder. I would like to go back to before I knew anything about any of this.
Good morning, Citizens! It's been a very, very weird news cycle. I think we're on the precipice of a headline like: "Lizza and Nuzzi Spotted on Piazza Eating Pizza with a Nazi."

My latest: Sen. Roger Marshall is asking DOJ to intervene in any Netflix purchase of Warner Bros Discovery. But he doesn’t mentions Paramount’s bid. Why? GIFT LINK #ksleg www.kansascity.com/opinion/read...

Kansas’ junior senator wants to kill the Netflix bid. Paramount is also bidding, and its owner is a friend of Donald Trump. | Opinion

And the irony of me being a bearded sunglasses dude?
*chef's kiss*
I blame Thomas Jefferson for this in part. Every exurban bearded sunglasses dude with a masked anxiety disorder thinks he's a goddamn yeoman farmer.

Sometimes your mayor watches TikTok and I get a lot of city-related stuff because duh, I'm a (dead) mayor. And I'm always astounded at the swarm of comments on anything related to any city that basically boils down to "DRUGS! CRIME! HOMELESS! I'M SO ANGRY SCARED!"

Good morning, Citizens! Look out for Bushwhackers if you're gathering provisions today!

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

According to the news, DOGE is dead. But hey, at least it failed to save any money and also got your data leaked, and a bunch of people killed.

Buckle up, Citizens! You know who rejects sensible use of seat belts? BUSHWHACKERS, THAT'S WHO.

The showman knows a great plot twist when he sees it.

“I feel very confident that he can do a good job. I think he is going to surprise some conservative people actually. We agreeon a lot more than I would have thought. I would feel very, very comfortable living in New York."

Meg Heriford, owner of Ladybird Diner in Lawrence, Kansas, typically uses the Affordable Care Act marketplace to purchase health insurance. But that may change. The tax subsidies that help her and more than 200,000 Kansans pay for health insurance are about to expire.
This Kansas diner owner says she’ll have to go without health insurance if federal subsidies end
Enhanced credits for health insurance purchased from the Affordable Care Act marketplace expire at the end of this year. If they aren’t renewed, premiums will skyrocket for many people in Kansas and nationwide.

There's a Lawhorn story in the LJWorld today about using the former Sunrise Project/greenhouse land at 15th and Learnard as a satellite parking lot for a "Doug Compton Special" apartment development in the Oread neighborhood. #LFK

I just can't with this.
