Why the Midwest is currently my favorite part of the US
1) It still manufactures a lot, and that gives people good meaningful jobs that ground them to reality. The American Dream is still alive here.
2) People are not performative, with a genuineness divorced from promotion. What is the stereotype to play to? Naive, boring, sincerity with a touch of drunk?
3) and like all of the US, every city here has bunch of brew-pubs and great restaurants. The idea that you can only get lattes, home-crafted IPAs, etc, on the coasts is crazy. Everywhere in the country now has great options, especially here.
4) Oh, Great Lakes beaches are vastly under-rated
5) Culver's
In praise of the Midwest, my latest piece

Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas

Humanity, created by God in all its grandeur, is today facing a pivotal choice: either to construct a new Tower of Babel or to build the city in which God and humanity dwell together. In Jesus Christ, this humanity in its grandeur becomes the Way, the Truth and the Life, opening the path for each of us to grow toward fullness. #MagnificaHumanitas

South Bend housing boom:

A few years ago, having one or two large multifamily residential projects underway in South Bend would have been a big deal. Right now in the city, at least 18 are somewhere in the development process, from concept to construction nearing completion.

No working class man in the 1950s bought this house.
This is pure, unadulterated, historically illiterate doom slop.
It's designed to get clicks, make people feel emboldened, mad, and depressed at the same time.
Just total garbage and stupidity.
