Finally found a use for the free headphones they hand out on flights - a lady in this doctor’s waiting room was watching her phone with the sound on for everyone to hear so I reached into my bag and fished them out and offered them to her as a spare pair and she took them and is using them. 🎉😎

IDK, I don't watch that stuff

EXCLUSIVE: The first family of Olathe Sweet™ (they own the trademark) sweet corn tells CPR's @stinasieg.bsky.social it won’t be available at a King Soopers or City Market. They will still sell their beloved corn throughout the region this summer — just in a more personal way. Here's why:
