A woman was found dead in her tent at the city-run campsite for people experiencing homelessness today. Other residents believe she may have been trying to detox.

Dear @KUParking and @KUAthletics, I think you will find that today is, in fact, October 4, and your barricades for a game that is 5 days away went up a day early. Sincerely, someone who just wants to park in a spot they paid for to earn that paycheck.

To celebrate our 35th birthday, we made new shirts! Here’s Lily, Bones, and Chris modeling the new look!
The new shirts are designed and printed by @prideofgumbo as an homage to his already-iconic storefront lettering at our new location. They’re sparkly!

Happy birthday to us! The Raven opened on September 1, 1987, 35 years ago! Here are original owners Pat and Mary Lou putting the first books on the shelves!
We're closing a bit early tonight (7 pm) so our wonderful team of booksellers can celebrate 3 and 1/2 decades of Raven!

Integrity matters, and @LawrenceKSTimes will not sit on news that is crucial for the community out of fear, or out of living in someone’s pocket.
Our first obligation will ALWAYS be to the people of this city.
Please help us keep doing this work. 3/3
