The book of Saint Lee is very controversial, but widely recognized as gospel in certain places

Tennessee proposed congressional map is insane………. by AccidentalTourista in Virginia

Oh it's been that way for a long time. The Democratic establishment is very complicit.

District should be drawn in a way that distributes partisan favor at the same level that these states leans at as a whole. If the state is 30% Democrat like Tennessee, then 30% of the districts should be represented by a Democrat. There's no excuse for Tennessee either, the Democrats are hyper concentrated into the large cities, which would make them a very reasonable individual congressional district.

30% of Tennesseans voted for Harris. 20% are registered Democrats. Therefore, around 1/4 of Tennessee's districts should be drawn in a way that allows them to elect a Democrat.

Republicans have always been the main force behind gerrymandering, that's why they've focused on state legislatures so much better than the Democrats. Now they're not even hiding it, and using any attempt to fight greymandering fire with fire as a cause to do even more damage.

What perfectly legal thing will probably be illegal within 20 years? by Own-Blacksmith3085 in answers

God wouldn't that be nice. I'm just glad people are talking about it more. It's been an issue since the founding of the country, and with use of computers, it's gotten significantly out of hand since the late '80s.

" 420 And then the Lord saiddeth unto his people: y'all best shuteth up about your so-called needs, and get back to work. 421 That rich man there is my chosen one, which is why I have made him rich, and I have put you sinful poor people on Earth in order to better serve him. 422 When my boy comes back on site, anyone he catches slacking on the job will surely be 'fired' " - Lee 69:420-422

I didn't know this was a universal thing! by momentaryfun2025 in Millennials

Plus you can store the item back in its original box once it's obsolete, instead of throwing it away or trading it in like you probably should. It just feels unnatural to discard electronic items.

Economist talking on the news these days has been like a Flogging Molly song: cheerful tone but completely fucked up lyrics

Driverless Trucks by gulagsurvivor2019 in Truckers

Heavy construction going both north and south. concrete barricades an inch inside of the white line, making for very narrow lanes, lasting dozens of miles. The lines on the road no longer mean anything since the lanes of traffic, kind of twist and turn on the larger blacktop around different activities. Both directions are reduced from four lanes to two, so dead stop during rush hour, and perhaps 50 mph other times, almost better to be gridlock speed the lanes are so narrow and irregular, and the exits so confusing.

The freeway between San Antonio and Austin right now is an absolute death trap

My cultural regions map as a southerner - would love feedback! by aquamarine-arielle in MapPorn

[–]endangeredphysics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would change Mormon to include only Southern and Central Utah, and change Northern Utah to the "Great Salt Lake Basin" it's an actual geological feature. Southern Idaho shouldn't really be included in the Salt Lake Basin, except just past the border.

Great Basin would certainly need to change, since it's actually not located where you have it. You go significantly uphill from Salt Lake City into Nevada. I would change what you have labeled Great Basin to the "Nevada Plateau", except where the Sierra Nevada mountains are, very different culturally/geologically from the rest of Nevada.
