They don't really cluster near the train. Of the 6,100 CT -> Mohegan commutes, only 357 are from New London. 1,887 are from Norwich, but they're located poorly relative to the railroad.
Sea borders aren't depicted; the Bahamas, Jamaica, and the Lesser Antilles are part of the UK, but Cuba, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic are independent.
It is not at all straight as an arrow between Syracuse and Rochester.
Bluesky on different New York politicians' responses to Trump v. Barbara.
I unfortunately have a number of mutuals who follow this bigot who thinks AIPAC is deliberately stoking anti-Semitism. Unfollow, block, etc.
Draft what-if high-speed rail map for Germany and surrounding countries. Despite the alt history tie-in to the WTB plan, this is not at all a WTB project - rather, like France, Germany picked up the idea from Japan's post-Pacific War system and only built this in the 1970s and 80s.
The US Armed Forces and the Iraqi military of the 1980s are not equivalent in capabilities. When they met, this was the result:

In the photo: a city that NIMBYed rail electrification on the grounds that high-voltage catenary wire causes cancer.
French workers by socioprofessional category. In 2024, the intermediate professions, middle-class and managerial professions, and business owner classes were a majority; the working classes (employé and ouvrier) and farmers were 44%, down from 64% in 1982. www.insee.fr/fr/statistiq...
I have a couple mutuals following this now hijacked spam account, formerly @DrDemography@bsky.social. @drdemography.com, was this once your account? Was it active when it was hijacked today?
The deal is "if his coalition wins the next general election." This is how his coalition is doing in the polls: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion... The American voting rights fights are completely irrelevant here, because we have robust systems of ID cards everywhere except the UK.
I'm seeing seven mutuals who follow this turd, who, as a Canadian, is calling mixed-race Trinidadian-Irish @badsocialism.bsky.social a British nationalist and a colonizer. This thread by him is good, what I screencapped is horrific and you guys should unfollow and block. bsky.app/profile/bads...
Just went back to it, after Cid got annoyed at my making her watch The Last Jedi and retired to the guest room to play KOTOR.
I found this while double-checking the Srebrenica massacre's death toll. Why is the ICJ based in the Netherlands, again?
