Update on this after a long time: I just looked at the results from 2024. My district was 53.7-45.1 Trump. My friend’s district was 52.5-46.2 Trump in 2024.

On my run today, I counted 14 houses with Trump signs and 16 houses with Harris signs. I looked up the results and my precinct, which is just neighborhoods like mine, voted 55% for Trump in both 2016 and 2020.

My friend, whose neighborhood is newer, has less expensive houses than mine and has more houses in total, said he counted 27 Trump-supporting houses and 12 Harris-supporting ones. His precinct, which has some rural area in it, voted 58% for Trump in 2016 and 57% in 2020.

Map of US States that have a light rail or subway system. Yellow indicates they have a tram system (which is not as good)

We need to make more states red. Edit: forgot Nevada and Hawaii

Map of every country with a subway, metro, or light rail system (which are all kinda the same thing honestly)

Here’s another Europe flag. I’ve seen a lot of people support a “federal Europe” so I thought this might be a good way to represent that, with the classic EU flag but also some stripes.

“God gives you good news of a Word from Him, his name will be the Messiah, Jesus.”

Where do y’all think this was written? Make your guess and then look in the comments for the answer

American version of the 2nd flag. I really like this (they need to fix Alaska and Hawaii though)

Edit: a Brazil version and an alternative US version

Europe needs a better flag, the 12 star one is kinda boring. I suggest a modern version of one of these:

1920 European flag proposal, with every countries flag arranged radiating out from the center. I think this looks tuff, it just needs to be reworked with modern flags.

1951 flag of Europe proposal by Salvador de Madariaga. It has the geographic location of each capital as a star in a constellation (the big star is Strasbourg). Again, I think this looks really cool, it just needs to be reworked with the new capitals.

1951 flag proposed by Hamries. The Es stand for Europe.

Which flag do you think is best? There’s a whole list of potential ones here, check it out: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Europe

Roma people literally live in pre-Civil Rights era racism in much of Europe, segregated in their own towns, and denied many services. It genuinely shocked me to learn that this still happens in the EU, supposedly the most progressive place on Earth.

Europeans talking about America: “it’s a fascist dump full of racism! I can’t understand why so many people want to immigrate there, they must be stupid to go to the USA! Thankfully we have a much more progressive European Union!”

Scratch “DUSTBINNING” prominent Speakers. Not good. We will look into this discriminatory and illegal practice at once! Many complaints. Here is a copy of my Statement that they deleted today!

The Chick-fil-a in my town in more Christian than some churches. I’m dead serious. I walked in and immediately saw almost everyone there was from some Christian community. And there’s just people reading the Bible at tables.

THIS is the Rubicon?? You’re pretending it was impressive that Caesar crossed this? I could probably jump across. 😤
