How does that work?

Technical subjects are funded in various ways by the government, or you can at least get a discount or something. Humanities MA's aren't, so you have to pay the "real" tuition fee by yourself, unless you can find a third party grant or something.

I like how New England is all high culture and civilized... then the moment you get to the middle colonies, bam, hourly motels and edible panties.

The juxtaposition of Edible Arrangement with Edible Underwear is amazing.

Nice to see Helzberg has unexpectedly cornered the Great Plains market.

But I think the most amusing is Kentucky. That is the most Kentucky thing possible.

And I just have no clue about Montana.

I love how non-specific and unromantic West Virginia is. West Virginia, please, it's Valentine's Day. At least put a little effort into it.

Similarly, compare Wyoming with Tennessee. I'm assuming the sex toys in Tennessee are made with tennis balls and duct tape.

WARNING! INTRUDERS DETECTED

More frequently than in other states is not the most google, it's just what's somehow unique about that state. But without the numbers it could be anything, it could be that 0.7 percent of people google couples tattoos in KY and it's 0.5 in other states.

Being a killjoy, I know.

Yeah, with most maps like that the value is just the z score of the frequency. With the number of large number of categories, frequency will be very low, and with low population states, variance will be very high, so it's more or less just a meaningless map for large swathes of the country (see also like 90% of twitter maps).

My go to example is kidney cancer mortality in the US:

(Top map is top 10% highest per capita deaths, bottom is lowest 10% per capita)

There actually aren't very strong geographic patterns for kidney cancer (it's more or less a "bolt of lightning" sort of poisson distribution of a disease), but if one dude in Loving County TX gets it, then they are in the highest category (1% mortality!), and if nobody does, they are in the lowest category (0% mortality). Since population DOES have strong geographic patterns, you get the strong-looking but ultimately meaningless clusters of stuff in Texas up through to the Dakotas.
