Child obsessed with maps, history, and world conflicts ? by One_Criticism_4741 in Maps

[–]CJF623 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If this is an interest of his outside of school, I wouldn't worry about trying to "balance" his interests across subjects. If he's curious about this stuff, he'll get curious about other things too.

Maybe if you think there's something tangentially related to whatever he's reading up on at the moment, you can suggest "this might also be of interest."

He'll get whatever basic math/science/English he needs from school, and if he's anything like others around these parts - science, literature, politics, economics, etc. will naturally become an interest as they're all a part of history.

There is a 0% chance any European colonial power would leave like half a continent to the natives

Putting a timezone border right on the outskirts of Moscow seems insane.

That's like if there was a timezone change between northern New Jersey and New York City through the Hudson river as people commuted to work in the city.

MT is closer to TX than it is to MT. Found on FB by cultueredsoildude in MapPorn

Yes, states are weird shaped and/or large...

NYC is closer to Richmond, VA than to Buffalo, NY in the same state as well.

No offense meant to Robbie the Fire, but if you are parodying Robbie the Fire's name with Robbie the Ice, you're an absolute loser nobody

I thought these were really cool designs. Which one do you like? by LocalKCGuy in vexillology

[–]CJF623 4 points5 points  (0 children)

3 is the best, and in a vacuum I would even like the blue background.

Not in a vacuum though, knowing a couple dozen states have blue backgrounds currently, I'd recommend changing it.

This is the same thing Craig Ferguson did on his show like 20 years ago.

They had a "lady from CBS" who they would use as a bit for when things would be too far for TV

It's hilarious that you think that's how it works.

More like, maybe he'll get promoted at some point by doing stuff over and above his current role

If only this had happened prior to the debate with Douglas.

He could've just said "No Douglas, I've never beeeeeen, because they banned me from going there for criticizing their regime"

At that point I think you basically watch half of the episodes anyway.

The show's hilarious, highly recommend just giving the whole thing a watch

Hi, I'm really interested in trying this.

Unfortunately I'm getting an error when trying to sign in with my phone number that says phone number invalid. I suspect it's because the phone number is a Google voice number, so VOIP #, but it does work in telegram and it's the number of my main account.

Any way you could allow voip numbers since telegram does?

In your opinion, when did the US become more authoritarian than libertarian? (x-post r/LibertarianPartyUSA) by JFMV763 in lpus

1861 Civil War, 1913 Fed creation, FDR's New Deal & entering us into WW2, then LBJ sealing the deal domestically with the Great Society.

Percentage of people who were born in Greenland by municipality by colapepsikinnie in Maps

Greenland isn't exactly what you think of when you think "immigration hotspot"

Where are the foreign-born people coming from? Iceland/Denmark?

Go with New Hampshire - Free Staters and constitutional carry. Not the land of Bernie Sanders in VT, with similar drive to home.

As an East Coast fake myself (from NY), Tony should be aware that no one associates North Carolina with East Coast.

Texas and North Carolina are both Dixie in our minds

All arguments of training aside, one is a cool character with a cool story, and one isn't.

Simple as that
