To My Coworkers, Thank You For Bringing So Much Light Into My Life
Jon Wolverton

Over the summer I got a job as a waffle cone maker at Big Dipper, a local ice cream shop here in Montana, and I can honestly say that it has been an absolute blessing. I love this job so much, and I believe the reason is because of you guys, my amazing coworkers.

I remember my first day on the job. I was so nervous to meet you all. I was so scared I was going to make a bad impression, but thank god I did not. I do remember burning a lot of waffle cones that day and being very stressed, but the wonderful girl who trained me, Rachel, helped reassure me that everything was going to be alright. You said to me "Please don't stress or quit, I really want you to work here!" and I knew I was going to like this job.

Since then so many wonderful memories have been made. From the hibachi dinner, to our singing and dance parties in the back, to that damn Uncle Cracker song (Baylee will know what I'm talking about), and to Kailee trying to teach me how to sing like Shakira (I cannot sing like her, by the way), I am so thankful for these memories.

So, to all of you marvelous people, thank you for bringing so much light into my life. The friendships that have blossomed from this job are ones that I never knew I needed. Each and every one of you has made a wonderful impact on my life and I know that I ever need advice or help on anything, or even a shoulder to cry on, I can come to you guys and you will be there with open arms. You guys have made me excited to come to work for every shift, no matter what kind of day I am having.

You guys are also part of the reason why I am staying in Billings for the fall, besides money being a factor. I get to keep my amazing job and see all of your wonderful faces more. I am so excited!

And to my superb manager Katie, thank you so much for taking a chance on me and hiring me. I love this job so much and you are the most chill and down to earth manager ever.

So here's to all of the incredible memories we have made and here's to many more to come. I love my work family so much.

The waffle cone boy loves you all!

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.
