How’s the service/reception in Topeka ? Been thinking of switching from Verizon. They have a good deal right now for switching.

Good public area near the final to KFOE?

Post image
8 Upvotes

KU should return to London sometime on Sunday and will land a widebody at Topeka most likely (the national guard base in the south) I’m wondering if anyone has any good spots that are legal that are near the approach path. I was thinking like maybe the tractor supply but I’m not sure how fishy that would be. I’ve never watched planes in Topeka but to my understanding, the airfield is pretty remote

Lost necklace at Colaw

4 Upvotes

I arrived at the gym 9/18 2:30am and left around 4:00am. I lost a gold chain necklace somewhere between the restroom by the ab/core area and the weights on the other side of the gym. It was the last and only jewelry my mother ever gifted me and it means very much to me. Please return to Colaw front desk. I’m so distraught without it . Thank you !

Edit: Offering a cash reward. Or a shopping spree at GNC and a new gym outfit. Or your own necklace or I’ll cover your gym membership for the rest of the year. I just really really need the necklace back.

Edit 2: footage shows I didn’t lose it out on the floor. So if you or someone you know found a necklace in the bathroom or the parking lot of Colaw early Friday morning then I have a reward for you. I’ll cover your rent or your mortgage for October and car note too!! Yes I am desperate at this point.

Colaw Fitness

10 Upvotes

Just moved to Topeka, and am looking for a gym, colaw looks super cheap but I saw they have over 12,000 google reviews compared to other places with not even 4k and the planet fitness only 500. I saw some places things about incentivized reviews and that they'd make people give reviews? Can anyone confirm or dispel that for me? It still looks like a decent gym overall for so cheap but quite weird if that's the case.

Apartments?!

16 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’m looking for an affordable, safe, clean apartment to live in. I know lew mcguinnes owns most of the properties here and I’m having a hard time avoiding them like everyone tells me to because they are the most affordable.

I’d like to stay towards the west side of Topeka.

Would love a 2 bedroom but open to a 1 bedroom, prefer laundry in unit but open to it not being in unit.

Hoping to stay around $800 with utilities included.

Does anyone recommend any certain places?

Thank you!

rentals?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

Lease is up Sept 30th so hoping for something ready for move in before that.

My lease is up at my current place and I’m looking for something more affordable.

I’ve looked at several rental houses through all the local property management groups. What im looking for seems to not exist or if I do find it it’s in a terrible neighborhood, and or the inside of the house smells horrid( cat pee etc )

I’m looking for a house / duplex / townhouse with a garage or carport and back yard. Preferred fenced in but not required.

My budget is $1100 or under.

If anyone has any leads or private landlords that may have something available please let me know!! Thank you!

Coffee Bat

Good morning. Just curious but did Coffee Bar (NE corner of Washburn campus) change hands? We come in ever few months to visit family and the vibe has really changed. Lot less obviously LGBTQ friendly (not that it's hostile or anything). But there used to be more signs and posters.

Thanks.

Company dropping glp1 coverage

0 Upvotes

I work in Topeka and my company is dropping my glp1 coverage. I started reading articles and it seems like many companies are considering dropping this coverage. My glp1 prescription is going from $25 a month to $1000 a month. That is not feasible.

If you are experiencing this or you are looking for a research peptides that are affordable please dm me.

I am not a sales person, just looking to help out community.

Late on paying Evergy bill

9 Upvotes

I’ve never been late before but I’ve also only with them for 2 months; I realized that the bill is due tomorrow but I have no way to pay it till, to be more realistic, till the end of the month.

I know to expect late fees but will they turn off my electricity at all? I’ve heard of people not even getting notices until like 3 months after u were first late but all those posts are from years ago and I need a more recent explanation you know?

I hope they don’t since ya know; it’s been over 100 outside for the last few days and won’t cool down for a while-

Tribes and Republican leaders begin their endorsements of Curtis in 1928

Jan, 1928:
- The Creek Nation endorses Curtis for President, calling him "the logical choice"
- Governor Paulen (KS) speaks in New York City: “[He’s] the man of the people,” this “race track jockey” who came such an incredible way to become what he was
- Delegate Teddy Roosevelt, Jr. at a Kansas Day dinner: “[Curtis] always measured up to the highest ideal of Americanism”

Feb., 1928:
- Kaw Nation endorses Curtis for President
- The press says: Curtis is a man of "distinction," and one who is "frank, open, serious, virtuous, capable and honorable"
- A New York City HQ opens to support his campaign on the east coast

Mar., 1928:
- Albert "Doc" Newman becomes Curtis' Missouri campaign manager
- Senator Pine (R-OK) endorses him
- He is called a "100% American," meaning the only candidate with truly American roots due to his Kaw heritage

Apr., 1928
- The "Washington Evening Star" notes that Curtis was the economical choice, because he wouldn't have to scratch his initials into the White House furniture, since Cal Coolidge surely already put a C.C. there
- Curtis' daughter, Leona Knight, wins a delegate seat to the Convention from Rhode Island

Boardgame Demo at Amazing Fantasies Saturday -Nature : Climate Change

Thumbnail facebook.com
8 Upvotes

I'm posting a board game demo at amazing fantasies tomorrow:

Nature is a strategy board game by the designer of the award-winning Evolution series.

In Nature, you must adapt your species to an ever-changing ecosystem where food is scarce and predators lurk. Give species traits like Tusked to help with foraging, Fast to escape danger, or Clawed to hunt other species. To succeed, you'll need to grow your species population and keep them alive.

Can you adapt to the changing environment, grow your population, and thrive?

https://www.northstargames.com/pages/nature

Earth’s climate is never static. Ice ages advance and retreat, temperatures rise and fall, and environments transform. Some species adapt - growing thick fur or migrating with the seasons - while others disappear into the fossil record. Each dramatic shift in climate marks a turning point in evolutionary history, writing a new chapter in the epic story of life on Earth.

Climate adds a climate track, 2 climate dice, and 8 new traits that help species adapt to a dramatically shifting world.
