I hope July is kind to you. And I hope that this July, you are kind to yourself.
always blows my mind as a european when people talk about states like “yeah theres nothing in ohio/montana/wyoming/etc” because i look at a map like but. but theyre so big. every state could qualify as its own country what do you mean theres nothing there. and then i ask people from those states and theyre like “yeah theres nothing here” what do you mean theres nothing there!!!
killing the reblogs just to say the answer is there was a genocide of the people living there in the last 200ish years. That’s why there’s “nothing” in the midwest. the people and culture living that are not contiguous with those living there a scant 300 years ago. this culture has only existed under capitalism and large-scale farming and only since like Louis and Clark.
Where is everybody? :(
This has more emotional impact than most Hollywood movies today
