Halle Berry is about half as good as Will Smith.

The President of the United States of loving America is just 'kinda' integrated.

A Good Chart.

Slovenia and Slovakia are both proportionally terrible at reading. Personally I blame confusion over which country they're in. How're you supposed to read if it's impossible to differentiate the name of your country from another one?

Stolen from the NHL offseason thread:

I know it does say 'leaders' at the top but it's jarring to get to the bottom of the graph and see 'league average.'

The only funny thing about this graph is the incredibly stupid names for those teams. Go Moose!

'Hershey Bears' is a pretty great pun though.

Well, there's really good wine NEAR Adelaide...

Adelaide itself is like Winnipeg of the South Seas, though.

This all reminds me of the pleasures of explaining the Siggaard Andersen nomogram to second year bio students.

Oh Christ I blocked that all out from med school. Is it wrong that my gut response to that graph is 'refer to internal med'?

I like the implication that chocolate covered raisins are awful - but chocolate covered racism is good

I literally saw chocolate-covered quinoa for sale yesterday. I think that might be worse than chocolate-covered racism.

why do I suspect this is just how many copies of switzerland a redditor could put inside a map of brazil

I mean Brazil is roughly 200 times the size of Switzerland so it looks like it kinda checks out

right, my bad

there is an insistence to having a precise cause of death when it's just "they got old and that was it" so they write morbus cordis or somthing and thats like ok yeah thats the actual "cause" but its not why they died

God, that drives me crazy. I see people filling out death certificates as 'cardiac arrest due to respiratory failure due to pneumonia' and I'm all JUST WRITE PNEUMONIA! It fucks up the stats if you don't write pneumonia!

Technically you could define death as 'cerebral hypoxia caused by cardiac arrest caused by ACTUAL CAUSE' for about 90% of causes of death, but that's only true in the most pedantic of senses, and doesn't give you any useful information on a population level.

the more i look at this graph, the more it confuses me.

at first i thought it was a map of english cities with some kinds of relationships, then i thought it was a graph of correlations between demographics and votes. now i have no idea.

what happens if gameplay becomes more emergent? does that make it more uncharted or more industrialized?

and why is few-individual-agency emphasized with green while many-control doesnt emphasize further to beloning??

No, see, Cornwall is Psychological and York is Structure. That explains everything!

I was asked to list countries I had visited recently today, Svalbard was a menu choice for some reason.

Svalbard has a somewhat weird status - it's not part of any Norwegian county (though it is part of the Kingdom of Norway) and is an entirely visa-free zone. Hence the former Soviet mining colonies on Norwegian land. Although it's not a dependency and I'd count it as part of Norway if I was listing countries I'd visited.

By contrast the Russian Arctic islands are attached to one of the 85 federal subjects of the Russian Federation broken up into five types you will learn in our explanation and are more 'normal' bits of land.

Edit: also Svalbard apparently has no representation in the Storting, because the constituencies are equivalent to Norwegian counties.

@ the people who went directly from a Florida beach to Banff.

Someone apparently went from the beaches of Fort Lauderdale to drive the length of the Trans-Canada Highway... and took the northern route through Kapuskasing.

This person would confuse me.

I also like how Jakarta is extremely not there.

It's from the first edition, published 2003. Jakarta's rapid transit system is relatively new and might not have had much in the way of maps at that point.
