I’m not a fan but to me he has enough credit in the bank for one more chance to get it right. Plus, awful environment in which to be hiring a coach. I legit don’t think we could end up with anyone better.

We’re gonna lose 77-2 in 38-degree rain.

Just Wells imo.

It is disgusting that K-State is letting *this* stay in the game. They are showing no focus, juice, effort, or coaching nous. Just embarrassing top to bottom.

It’s even more disappointing how poor K-State has been this year given that there 4th in the country in forced turnovers.

Those are supposed to be game-changers.

I love Nancy. Hope he crushes it and uses it as a springboard to a big big big job.

I was there! (and we just barely escaped) I have season tickets and almost always make the trip. 🥱

This day was made for you

You’re the first person who’s ever called me tall! 🥹

(idc the context or that it’s relative to cat sizes I’LL TAKE IT!)

HUGE win for #KStateVB over #21 Baylor. Barring a complete faceplant, that should cement them in the NCAA Tournament field. Likely playing for seed now. 😎

My cat just tried to climb me — scale me like a goddamn tree.

Not a fan. #ouch

Somewhat recently I lamented that I have never seen Joe Jackson live, and I was sure he wasn’t going to tour again, at least nearby, and any chance had passed.

So it was to my very grateful surprise to hear this morning that not only is he touring next summer, but he’s coming to KC!! 🤩

My reward is Town Topic for a late dinner after dropping off my cardboard recycling. 😋

I spent the majority of my day off cleaning, as my place had gotten embarrassingly dirty. Still a few things to do but it is way better.

It shouldn’t feel like a big accomplishment, but it does. Since I so often find excuses to procrastinate. I hate it so much.

And now you’re a Claire Bear

I just used the term “crop dust” in a work meeting. Because I am a professional.

I like what I see from Nate Johnson. He’s the early favorite for My Guy. #KStateMBB

(this early in the season, that is very fluid)

Screenshot of a MS Teams chat reading “Respectfully, everyone wants everything as soon as possible. That doesn’t make it a deadline.”

I just had an epiphany. I think I just summarized my entire job and career — and the entire corporate experience — in 2 sentences in a MS Teams chat. 🤯

Just heard a co-worker reference another co-worker whose last name is Terwilliger. Hard not to think of this guy:

I was really surprised there wasn’t more on a November ballot. Especially since we had a special election like 2 months ago which also had one (1) question on it.

It may be hard at this point to buy this argument, but your vote tomorrow in elections big and small does matter and is incredibly important to all of us who care about shoring up our American democracy. So please do it.

What made me mad was that Temwa, and iirc Caldentay, weren’t even among the 50 finalists. THAT is outrageous.

The Current led the league in goals scored. And fewest goals conceded. They conceded 13 in 26 games — exactly 0.5 per game. Second-best was 27 — more than double that of #KCBaby.

Goal difference:
KC: +36
Other 7 playoff teams combined: +39

A personal favorite moment. The timing of Tye’s commentary was impeccable!

Me, singy-songy: “Debinha’s gonna score here…and it’ll be awesome.”

Debinha: <does that>

This is the sixth straight season in which a Will Smith wins a World Series:
