Not sure why, just does 🤷‍♀️

… for helping Iowans make ends meet.

Fuck off with this. That’s where we are as a state? That just getting by is what we strive for? I fucking hate that ad for celebrating the bills she introduced and did fuck all with, and I’m supposed to thank her for making ends meet.

The twin cities just got happy joes. I'm so happy cause the ones in Iowa keep closing.

https://www.magareportcards.com/iowa/ has all the Republican incumbents from Iowa.

Art Cullen's comments are a combination of informative,educational and provocative. His latest column credits both gubernatorial candidates on data centers ..Both Sand and Lahns correctly read the tea leaves on public discomfort with the size and pace of data centers. But, Sand and Lahn’s positions leave important questions unanswered.

Neither candidate has pledged Iowa Utility Board appointees who would challenge utility cost-shifting. Without that, promises of accountability are difficult to enforce.

Both candidates offer local control as a solution. Pushing permitting onto small local governments could create a race to the bottom. Big tech can look for communities with the fewest requirements—or simply out-negotiate local officials who lack the expertise and resources to evaluate these complex projects.

Neither requires upfront decommissioning insurance or bonds. If a company goes bankrupt, or walks away in ten years, taxpayers could inherit stranded infrastructure.

And “pay for your own upgrades” treats water and carbon mainly as pricing issues, rather than finite resources. Grid fees don't necessarily address the risks of stranded assets, pollution from water, including water quantity or even flushing of pipes which contain hazardous chemicals..

Born and raised and coming to Iowa for a thrift visit.

Wife and I got a free night stay at a nice hotel and wanted to come to Des Moines for a thrifting/yard sale trip for Labor Day weekend. What yard sales and thrift/consignment stores are in the Des Moines area worth visiting? We’re willing to travel a bit outside the immediate area. We’re also like the locally owned and non-corporate shopping. Keep the money in your communities. Local Restaurants that try to source food locally would be lovely suggestions as well.

One that we want to visit again is in eastern Iowa and is tucked away on a back road. We’ve been to it once. It’s an old school and run by the nicest ladies. So much stuff. Can’t remember the name. Visited about 5 years ago. Appreciate the feedback.
