my brother is scared to death of san francisco. he hates it, says there’s poop everywhere and he’s accosted by homeless people all the time. i dunno, i’ve been to his house and they leave dirty diapers on the floor and his children are children so they’re needy and don’t pay rent. which seems right. maybe he’s a little confused? also, i have encountered human poop exactly once in san francisco over decades of visiting at least monthly. i’m just grumpy that the deli i got my char siu pork at (Go Duck Yourself/Hing Lung) moved and i haven’t found a new one i like yet. also my brunch place went from five locations to one, and it’s not the location i liked in the Castro. At least my beef with the city is real.
I miss Iowa City. It was such a diverse and wonderful island surrounded by by the monotony of white bread America. I’m scared to go back, because I fear it has been swallowed by the mediocrity of conservatism.
Iowa City. They’re fairly progressive up there.
Right there in the name: “City”. A dangerous place where you might be exposed to dreaded opposing viewpoints.

If you don’t want poop on the streets, install public toilets. Problem solved.
i guess i pass the vibe test because i’ve never had problems getting to a toilet in SF, public (which while not on every corner, exist) or private.

Yeah, I used to live in Cedar Rapids. Went to the movies in Iowa city quite often.
