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.
The “Midwest” is actually the “Mideast”
fight me. do it.
The Midwest is like 4 states in my head. I grew up in Indiana, so its Indiana, Ohio, and Illinois, and some of Kentucky. But most of Kentucky is actually the deep south, so that’s not even quite right.
The Midwest is the friends we made along the way

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.
Yeah and “West” includes all the center states.
We could really use some peace 'round these parts, couldn’t come fast enough.
Have them annexed to Greenland, there are only upsides… Universal healthcare, cars that people can afford, and best of all safety from Trump
