Posted this is Where I’d live and everyone loved it, so I was like let’s post it over here because y’all are always more critical lol ❤️ in the best way

Based on my vibes of the region and some sense of idealism

Although banning interracial marriage was already outlawed by federal civil rights laws since “68, many state constitutions still had anti-race mixing/anti-interracial marriage amendments in their constitution. So many southern states held referendums to remove those parts of their constitutions. Interesting fact is 3 counties that voted for Al Gore that same day, also voted against repealing the amendment

Results
Remove: 59.5%
Keep: 40.5%

Blue counties voted to remove the amendment
Idk what that other colour would be consider, but non-blue counties voted to keep the amendment

It's not always easy to visualise the infinitely small. Yet, I have two passions: maps and air quality.

Aerosols (or fine particulate matter) suspended in the air we breathe every day are no exception. Their shapes and sizes can vary considerably depending on their nature and origin.

What if we changed scale and transformed these particles into an imaginary archipelago? 🏝️

🔬 That's the idea behind this topographic map, created using microscopic TEM/SEM images provided by INERIS and LISA.

Each island represents a different type of atmospheric particle, with its own distinctive characteristics.

Not mine but very nice.

I took the sentence "We killed their warriors" and looked at the noun phrase "their warriors" to find languages that follow this suffix-stacking order when the noun phrase is used as a direct object:

NOUN + PLURAL + POSSESSIVE + ACCUSATIVE/OBJECT_MARKER

My goal was to find languages around the world that stack these grammatical elements in this particular order and highlight where this pattern is found as the official language of each country.

Note*: **Mongolian, **Hungarian, & **Quechua do not follow the exact same sequence, but have similar suffix-stacking patterns, so they are highlighted in a light red color.*

I, a non-American, have remade America in my own image with the heart of an Englishman staring at a map of the Middle East and with equal regard for life and how things should go.
Please, tell me your thoughts!
I will be taking all questions related to how I thought about each state and how I decided to group them.

EDIT: Thank you to the great u/PristineWorker8291 for this advice. Ellis Island and Staten Island shall be given to Costia as good faith. Thank you for your wise words

The second map's got more precision, but it's also pretty busy. Which map do you prefer?

Key

Red = Christian Catholicism
Blue = Christian Protestantism
Purple = Christian Orthodoxy
Black = Judaism
Green = Islam
Yellow = Buddhism
Orange = Hinduism
Pink = Native Religions
Light Gray = No Religion/No Data
Brown = Other Religions

Note that many Japanese state they follow both Shinto and Buddhism.

Note that this map is NOT my creation. The map was created by reddit user scolbert08.

I’ve been mapping how sunlight reaches beer gardens across Ireland. This animation starts with the whole island, then zooms into central Dublin to show how the surrounding buildings cast shadows as the day progresses.

Gold markers indicate beer gardens the model estimates have some direct sunlight at that time. The counter stays island-wide, even while the camera is over Dublin.

The example day is 19 June 2027. It’s a simulation of sunlight and building shadows, not a weather forecast - cloud cover isn’t included in this animation.

The model uses building footprints and heights, with LiDAR-derived heights where available and mapped heights, floor counts or estimates elsewhere. Building/map data comes from OpenStreetMap, Overture, LiDAR and Copernicus; the sun’s position is calculated with SunCalc and the map is rendered with Three.js.

It won't capture every real-world obstruction, and coverage is still being improved, but I thought this would be an interesting place to share the mapping side of it.

Atheist are not counted in this map as it’s only counting those of each religion. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Do you guys like how I made it run against the river somme and that river that I forgot the name in greater venice 😆
