    The ancient Middle West prophecies speak of a prophet who will lead us to the promised land where there’s unlimited pop and deep fried chicken pita wraps with ranch dressing. It’s a place that’s basically the same as the lyrics from big rock candy mountain.

      As a kid, I thought the Midwest was Montana, the Dakotas, Wyoming, Nebraska, Colorado and Kansas.

    I knew of two other people on lemmy who lived in my state, and then following the tradition of so many astronauts before us, one of them left due to governmental persecution and fled to another country.

    Shout out to all the people stuck in these states without enough funds to leave for a better life.
