Actual Iowans seeing Waterloo described as "deep-red Conservative" by some engagement farmer who clearly has never been to Iowa:
BREAKING: These are the photos coming out of Democrat Rob Sand’s townhall in deep-red Conservative Waterloo, Iowa. It’s packed and filled with applause for Sand. This is amazing.
She did say that (almost four years ago in October 2021.)
Did she really say that?

Gen Z, thinking they're the most badass generation because of TikTok challenges, learning about Ozzy Osbourne today:
Osbourne's Iowa connection: When he bit the head off that bat in 1982, it was during a concert in Des Moines. (Not to be confused with the time he bit the head off a live dove, which Osbourne and his wife discussed on his own Behind the Music episode the previous season.)

I distinctly recall watching Behind the Music on VH1 in 1999, when Tommy Lee told the (later confirmed) story of an already wildly high Ozzy Osbourne snorting a line of ants by a hotel pool on tour. Osbourne has died. Arguably, his most shocking stunt is having lived to age 76.

Example #85,378 of why you never let AI do your research for you. My search inquiry was about when the butter cow is sculpted. Google's AI results told me — but also gave false info that someone not already familiar w/ how @IowaStateFair dates are determined would likely believe.
I never met Malcolm-Jamal Warner, but like millions of later Gen Xers and elder millennials, I thought Theo Huxtable was the coolest big brother ever.
We - or, rather, you guys on the left - should stop letting a 2-5% bloc of losers guide society.
Today I wrote about how the misanthropic quirks of a small group of people became a generalization that all women never wanted men to talk to them, and why this narrative got so big in the 2010s. Link in replies.
False. (The cremation process can't be completed when the air is as humid as ours.)
If you're sad about the @kumandgo brand dying because Maverik doesn't appreciate sophomoric Midwestern humor, then have I got the place for you on Center Point Road in Cedar Rapids, folks.
I was cheated on at a Carrie Underwood concert. While he was getting her drunk and thinking he was about to get lucky, I was keying his car and smashing the headlights with a baseball bat. But hey, maybe the next time he wants to cheat, he'll think first.
I found out I was cheated on at an REO Speedwagon concert I heard it from a friend who, heard it from a friend who heard it from another she'd been messing around...😟
