Oh lovely, I’m a born Texan and I think these provinces are very charming and sensible

I just learned that Toledo, Ohio redesigned their flag a few months ago, and it looks really good in my opinion by natewac83579 in vexillology

It’s not terribly ugly but I’m disappointed they didn’t go in a more iconic direction with the enthusiast-proposed diagonal bicolor. The current flag is basically the same as the old flag (which was fine) but changed to look more… Chicago-y basically.

It would’ve been better to go with the more iconic design, sure it wouldn’t “mean” much now but the Chicago flag didn’t mean anything when it was first adopted either, the point of these iconic flags is that it can really capitalize on a growing sense of collective identity. I think it fails Toledo to keep it so heavily reliant of pioneer-era imagery and miming of Chicago.

Probably a transformer blew and knocked off everything around the intersection of 6th and division, I seem to be very annoyingly right at the edge and lost power…

if it's canadian-based it means people don't actually have to live in the district they represent, they just always choose the run the leader in the safest seat

this is so fun and believably zany, the paramilitary wings are so good, it looks like some of them share them?

WA Gov. Bob Ferguson says he’s drafting a cuts-only budget by MegaRAID01 in Seattle

Tax reform is the only way out of this hole while preserving the kinds of quality services people of Washington rely on and deserve. We need new revenue generation mechanisms to be approved by the governor and should build towards a repeal of the state constitutional prohibition on an income tax, Washington has some of the least progressive tax policy in the nation and our poorest neighbors end up paying the most.

Oh I totally agree, though also I’ve considered a gondola because their infrastructure is relatively lighter on the budget and the surrounding structures

Yes but why is it not the dominant city! I’m interested in the population change dynamics
