It's almost impressive how they manage to spin themselves in their own mind (or appear to be, since they delete any and all posts/comments that are even vaguely anti-Trump). Here's the headlines of the posts involving this Michael Cohen interview, which are followed by overwhelmingly positive and agreeing comments: Bless you for rummaging through the filth to find beauty like this.

They'd talk to people who lived in bedroom communities for big cities as if they were living the middle of nowhere. Maybe i'm miss remembering. fishmech posted:What most people think of as rural is just the edges of suburbia, but suburbia none the less. True rural areas are a whole lot different, because fuckin nobody lives there. Huh. This is honestly news to me, but I grew up in a legit rural area, so maybe we just spoke with different language than those city folk.

I just had a chat with a friend. He wanted to make a friendly bet who your next president would be. On the one hand he has a, not quite well founded, believe that Trump would win and doesn't actually trust any polls, or Hillary, for that matter. But he insisted that we'd use the odds of betting sites (About 4:1), because otherwise I'd have arbitrage. What would you say are "fair" odds? On the one hand he's kinda right, because it is almost a zero expectation for me (I'd still give Trump a 20% chance to make it, just by virtue of how stupid a huge percentage of the US is.) But on the other hand, he doesn't believe the polls those odds are based on. If he believes that Trump winning chances are 90%, those odds should be way in his favor and he'd have no reason to demand auch a high payout. What would you say is a fair compromise? He really hates Clinton, to the point of using the words "It was proven that she committed high treason." And as much as I hate to admit it, I think hes actually pro-Trump, rather than anti-Hillary. cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 00:20 on Aug 18, 2016 |

Zwabu posted:I remember that this guy said something really obnoxious or pugnacious early in the campaign, probably the primaries, but I don't remember what it was or who he said it to. Judging from the clip I guess he says a lot of obnoxious stuff though. Seemed like it had to do with threatening to sue someone and there was a lot of profanity IIRC. Didn't he say you can't rape your wife?

And as much as I hate to admit it, I think hes actually pro-Trump, rather than anti-Hillary. Betting odds were 1.3 last week which I thought was fair enough that I put a second bet on Hilary to win, I'd argue that's a fair amount (I say this as someone who makes a lot of political bets). I was lucky to have a $2500 bet on Hilary to win the presidency matched at 1.9 in the early days of the primaries (when sanders was still in and the republican race was an 8 person clown car).

I like her stunned "I just told you" when he gets his answer and says "Says who?" again. Like he's asking "Who says that all the polls say Trump is losing?". I expected him to ask "Says who?" repeatedly until she gave up. Quick Edit: I think in his head when she says "All of them" he's just smugly thinking to himself of some random one off "unskewed" poll where Trump is barely edging out Clinton. wilderthanmild fucked around with this message at 00:32 on Aug 18, 2016 |

Popular Thug Drink posted:'suburb' is a super vague term, there's an extra term used for more rural suburbs called 'exurbs' I just call all of the people in those areas rurals because it's more reflective of the type of people they are. Much like actual rural areas, they're dependent as hell on the wealthier, denser-populated cities via transfer payments and economic ties to the greater world, but think everything bad in their life is directly tied to the closest city which of course looks like detroit.

Suburbs are the populous towns in the donut counties, alongish the county border nearer the major population center. Exurbs are the towns that are much less populated but oftentimes still in the donut counties, on the outer edges. This where true McMansions are built, and where faux rural white people congregate. Neither term really has a formal definition but I feel like this fits for most cities, most of the time. When you try to make it work for enormous population centers like Chicago or LA it just falls apart because those are sprawling and all-consuming

Trump's making them look grounded.

I certainly remember that for 2012 because they were so sure the polls were skewed and Romney was gonna win that he hadn't even written a concession speech. e; ^  But yeah Trump makes the Romney camp look like their only sins were a couple of ill-judged comments (47%, Binders full of women) and being a bit optimistic about their chances, which really, any campaign hoping to win should have because nothing keeps the voters at home like a candidate resigned to defeat. At the time it was heralded as a tremendously dysfunctional debacle, but the bar for that has been raised just a little of late.

Epic High Five posted:Suburbs are the populous towns in the donut counties, alongish the county border nearer the major population center. An exurb is, like a suburb, intended primarily for people who will be living/working in a core city. Unlike a suburb, its overall density is low enough that it no longer counts as an urban area under the Census definition (where urbanized areas are defined as having a core area of at least 1000 people per square mile, which extends for as long as you can connect contiguous Census blocks of at least 500 people per square mile. Blocks can be considered contiguous if the population density isn't met between them so long as the intervening areas are parks, commercial zones, industrial areas, or things like airports). An urban area must total to at least 2500 people who aren't in a prison or college or other residential institution. Exurbs are often in a form where most of the town or whatever is farms or otherwise non-inhabited land, with sprinklings of typical suburban development, when they're not dedicated to having huge houses for rich people who can afford to commute from all the way out there. Here is a fairly typical sort of exurban development, pan around and all that: https://www.google.com/maps/place/S...7220017!6m1!1e1 The town it's in averages 114 people per square mile. When you leave this development through google street view, you're also running into a lot of ranch and farm land. Here's a fairly typical sort of suburban development, also pan around and such, which is a little ways over in the same metro area (less than 10 miles away, even): https://www.google.com/maps/@40.086...!7i13312!8i6656 This town averages 1,684 people per square miles. Notice how much closer together the homes are, even if they're not all that much smaller. It's easy to see how you have more than 10 times the population density. Now let's move another couple miles inwards, to a suburban city: https://www.google.com/maps/@40.076...!7i13312!8i6656 This city averages 3,239 people per square mile. It's not really important anymore, the last time it was important was the early days of the US as a country. It's the edge in itself of the densest suburban areas around Philadelphia - being part of a string of river-side towns that were the nucleus of development in the area, especially since it's where the first railroads went through in the 19th century. These days that rail line still exists and has passenger rail service again, which is leading to that town and the others along it (which includes the town just above this) further densifying, particularly around the rail stations. Driving into Philly sucks, after all.

Yes, litter typically is spread out on the ground, then with enough effort it gets picked up and put into a trash bag, and eventually into a compactor.
