This state's favorite food map seems way less terrifying than the last one that got posted. Probably because it is based on foursquare check ins and some magical ideas that exist in some bored Foursquare desk-jockey's head. (Source: https://www.mapbox.com/labs/foursquare/statetastes/)

For comparison here is a hideous map of US prices from 2011. And a cool map of smoking rates.

Boy Singer is going to be in for a nasty surprise in about 10 years. https://digital.library.cornell.edu/catalog/ss:3293804 He was an rear end in a top hat anyway. Also I'm really wondering about the menace of spanish pears on French republicanism.

Yeah the government loved to build driving ranges in rural villages (along with other recreational facilities) so all of them have one. Taking a train anywhere you see a ton of them between cities.

Grand Fromage posted:There were some in Roman Londinium, and a likely Japanese woman in an imperial burial in Italy, which I like to think was Nero's waifu since he was the gooniest emperor. Do you have a source on this? It would have been around the yayoi period for nero, and the peoples living in japan at the time wouldnt have been particularly worldly (course if it was later it would make more since but things are always lamer when it happens in medieval rome). Or maybe it was a penninsular japanese inhabitant which would be neat and infuriating to some folk. Im not doubting you i just think it would be a fascinating read.

Grape posted:And the reason the Arabs overran it all so easily is because the non-coastal populations were generally Oriental Orthodox rather than Eastern Orthodox, who through Byzantine policy were mistreated as second class citizens. And so they were actually kind of cool with an army of desert nomads just running in and beating the poo poo out of the Byzantines and kicking them out. This is what happens when you let a carthaginian failson pretend like he’s a real emperor.

Newfoundland isn't even the same font as the other province names Because newfoundland isnt the province name My car gps loves to tell me the names of tiny no outlet roads that dont connect to the road im on rather than the name of the roads at intersections maybe gps ui designers just really want people to focus on the hidden world.
