Who knew?

The one chiming in to defend a cringe meme. Grow up lmao

Post cringe to cope about people pointing out a meme is shitty snd let everyone know you’re butthurt

It’s an incel meme, this kind of shit is the very valid and rational reason that women avoid them

Lol @ snopes spending time to go through and debunk the blogspam story that sounds like it was written by an LLM

The Trojan horse is actually the one on the right, this scene takes place in the stables of Troy where this one stallion with a giantess fetish took the wooden mare as his mate

Seems historically accurate given the level of radiation exposure a lot of the nuclear scientists got

Oh no heaven forfend they take their heavy roadblocks out of narrow SF streets

Terrible and obvious bait but I am wondering why you picked those movies they’re both pretty old and there are newer examples of universally low rated movies than Click

I am just going to say that I am well acquainted with both conditions of SoCal but I think it’s still a stereotype

You’re not going to get quality answers here but it might get you started. You will get broad strokes that obscure a lot of difference. If you want to go deeper there are many directions to go in. For example you will want to think about whose perspective you’re looking at cultural regions from, because the subsection of the American population you’re talking about matters due to segregation, different migration patterns, etc. If you are talking very mainstream dominant culture then I would personally look up US historical trends of waves of colonialism spreading West and events like the Trail of Tears, Louisiana Purchase, Spanish-American War, amongst others that were really big in the establishment of cultural differences. A good chunk of the different cultural regions correspond to bioregions and the culture of the people who were genocided so settlers could take their land. The grease trail is a good marker for cascadia as a cultural region IMO. But the white supremacist settler idea of the “american redoubt” roughly tracks the same region. Cultural regions in the USA are subject to cultural imaginings, it’s a lot less regulated than in Europe with your DOCs.

The density of different cultural regions varies by region with population density and degree of diverse migration. For example, the diner culture of New Jersey is something unique in itself, or so I hear. You get wacky foods like skyline chili or the pizza of Altoona, PA or architecural flourishes like the free-standing basement toilets of Pittsburgh. Random ass cities will have their own long standing cultural thing in the states “back east” where the majority of settler Americans live. Whereas the state of Oregon is the size of the UK & contains maybe three cultural regions if you include the state of Jefferson which is kind of just neoconfederate crankery.

But basically I think the whole question you’re asking can’t be summed up quickly and understanding it requires understanding a lot of history, geography, and politics to get why this country is as fucked and fabulous as it is. Like I could rattle off a TLDR of stereotypes of regions like the rainy PNW, polluted and expensive California, the snowy Rockies, the sunny Southwest, the corn covered flat Plains, the behemoth Texas. The “midwest” is somewhere between the plains and the Great Lakes Region, which bleeds into mid-atlantic to the east and new England to the NE & the South to the SE. On the eastern seaboard you got new England, mid atlantic/DelMarVa, then the South then Florida which is its own beast but also contains multiple regions. But even this is oversimplifying leaving out regions like the Big Thicket between Texas and Arkansas and Appalachia, which stretches between multiple regions as defined by states but is definitely its own cultural region, as is Acadia.

TL;DR: tough question, maybe not the right one, depends on who you ask.

& you are correct about airspace being regulated. Just because an ultralight doesn’t require a license doesn’t mean you can just fly it anywhere with no training on how to get airspace clearance either. I imagine they will eventually develop something like an automated version of the LAANC clearance process for drone pilots, but it will take a while to develop the regulations for sure, if they even get that far.

I’m hoping regulations get in the way of this. The FAA is barely comfy letting people fly a drone beyond line of sight with a waiver, fully automated flight for untrained passengers is going to take some doing.

Trust me folks an EV is on everyone’s mind with gas prices like they are these days. Nobody can really afford either thing, amirite?

You got it. Alt right to Nazi pipeline = increased view time = increased ad revenue. Same with how Facebook ranked content that got people to give it an “angry” react 5x higher in the algorithm than a “like” at one point. Anger/hate drives engagement.

Sleigh Ride is worse IMO because there are so many different versions. Also “winter wonderland” has way too many versions. There’s so many damn snowmen that they pretend are Parsons Brown…

Retail jobs are the worst for that because most people there ended up working them right out of high school

Don’t like the increasing surveillance but this seems like a pro worker move actually. You don’t have to turn them on to be a snitch, you just have to turn them on if you’re being harassed. I got fired after being harassed by a customer and my employer took their side. If I had footage of it and audio then things might have been different
