THIS IS SO TRUE

Louisville is a place with no labels. It’s not the South, it’s not Chicago, and you don’t think of it as you think of New York or LA. It has some Southern romanticism to it, but also a Northern progressivism, this weird urban island in the middle of the state of Kentucky that has always provided a fertile, often dark, bed. For us, Louisville and the surrounding areas are the center of massive creativity and massive weirdness. The place has its flaws: You move away, but you’re always going to come back.

Louisville Named the ‘Manliest Town in America’ by GQ
Yeah, yeah, Chicago has broader shoulders. But when it comes to the masculine arts — bourbon, baseball, bettin’ the ponies — good luck topping Louisville. And don’t worry, the city’s not just coasting on its history. Lou-uh-vul strikes a balance between the traditions for which it’s justly famous and a right-now vibe that gives the town and its 750,000 residents a kind of courtly swagger.

This pleases me.

Unorthodoxy threatens more than the life of a mere individual; it strikes at society itself
