It is not often that I, a 6'4 320lb man, have occasion to feel small.

These photos are the only photos I’m aware of that contain all four Iowa classes. The first two photos were taken June 7th, 1954. The bottom photo would’ve been around the same time too, can’t be certain if it’s to the day but it probably is.

Who knew it was possible to combine a Dear Santa letter and a profound spiritual crisis?

(source: The Sioux City Journal, December 25, 1902.)

#masterpieces #Hazel is officially tied for first place for best letter this year #'you do not have any raindears' has been making me laugh for well over a week #Dear Santa #1900s #kids #history #iowa #for some context the whole class had to write letters to santa

Clark crying in the post match press conference has officially ruined me.

Stating “I want my legacy to be the impact I can have on young kids and the people in the state of iowa. And I hope I brought them a lot of joy this season. I hope this team brought them a lot of joy this season. I understand we came up one win short, but I think we have a lot to be proud of- and a lot to celebrate. And I was just that young girl, so all you have to do is dream, and you can be in moments like this.

Pure class- Angel Reese take some fucking notes.

#my heart breaks in moments like this #caitlin clark #iowa wbb #she is her #women’s march madness #pure class from Clark #I hate the refs and LSU and Kim mulkey for robbing this woman #lsu wbb #I hope someone hangs the stars and the planets for her #someone be her sun

my sister, my parents, my friends tell me I was cheated, having to do all but my first semester of grad school during covid, and that I graduated supposedly more employable into the clusterfuck of may 2021. usually I feel resigned to it at much as anyone else does to the first few years of the pandemic. it sucked and everyone was numb.

but sometimes, like when I see happy pictures of friends and family who got their masters and phds pre-pandemic, carrying diploma covers and in the ugly robes with their most loved surrounding them in celebration, I do feel pretty fucking bitter. it does make me feel cheated that my sister and I were first generation college students, graduate students, and my sister an entire fucking doctor of her field, and we didn't get to have our families or anyone celebrate at our schools. nobody traveled out to Iowa because I told them not to, and I didn't go to my own graduation when that kind of ritual means a lot to me, and I didn't buy or rent robes or a cap or a tassel, and I didn't walk anywhere or commemorate the day. what I did was post to my instagram story once I submitted my final project, and I bought a departmental cardigan, and as a member of the LIS student org exec board, I drove all over the county delivering cardigans to others. my family and friends and J were still proud, and I was happy with myself, but yes! yes I did get cheated!

#this is so fucking entitled and whiny and i realize that. oh boohoo you didn't get a graduation ceremony #i don't even have an excuse i just hate that grad school was nearly all fucking online and i moved to fucking IOWA for online classes #and i'm still here a failure to launch and i didn't even get to see me family to feel proud and hopeful after two grueling hell years #and i didn't get to go with my family to see my goddamn brilliant sister walk across the stage after her own hellish last few years ofschoo #i wish i didn't feel so mad about this on the rare occasions i actually think about it #ann with an ie
