I miss Iowa City. It was such a diverse and wonderful island surrounded by by the monotony of white bread America. I'm scared to go back, because I fear it has been swallowed by the mediocrity of conservatism.

  • I've met a shocking amount of sane people since moving to my close-ish to Des Moines small town. Including family I would have just assumed were conservative by virtue of living in IOWA.

    Then again, it used to be a battleground state, so maybe it shouldn't be so shocking.
