This is the second edition of “Little known places in Atchison”.

Enjoy and go explore Atchison.

1. Vintage Gypsy

This store is right across from another place on this list (Snowball) and is very unique. There are many random things in this store, from rosaries to candles and beads to make jewelry. Definitely an interesting place to pass time if not anything else.

Rating:

2. Iron Horse

This is a really great barbecue restaurant in town, right across from the YMCA. It is almost hidden, you have to really work to find it if you want the food. But once you do find it, the food is amazing and will leave you smelling like barbecue for days to come (which is not a bad thing.)

Rating:

3. Artist Box

I went into this store for just a little while but I wish I could’ve stayed longer. There are paintings and painted pottery for sale but they also have unpainted items that you can work on yourself in the back of the store. It is very unique and would be a really good place to spend an hour or a few getting creative!

4. Chuck and Hank’s

This restaurant is a mix between Mexican and barbecue food, which is probably the best combination there could possibly be. It is located down on the river and has very delicious food.

Rating:

5. SnowBall

Ok so pretty much everyone knows about Snowball but I just thought I’d include it on the list for the few people who didn't know about it, plus its one of my favorite places off campus. Snowball serves icecream (duh) but also has a full menu of different meals and drinks you can get while studying in their large study space. They have FREE WIFI (the password is BestCoffee, you’re welcome) which really comes in handy when BC’s wifi is down. The people who work there are very friendly and it is a great place to go when you need good food/ to get off campus.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
