Who doesn't love a good map? I'd even say we'd get lost without one. They enrich our understanding of the world in a simple, visual way.

Maps teach us not only about the size and shapes of countries but also show many more interesting things, like earthquake locations and wealth distribution. The local status of gay marriage or car reliance. Pretty much everything we have data on!

So let's revisit this subreddit for a new dose of cartography — it hits just as strong as the previous ones.

    The creator of this online group, Patrick McGranaghan, described himself in a previous Bored Panda article on the subreddit as a "Denver-based techno-geek with a focus on all things geospatial and cartographic and a coding hobbyist with an emphasis on geospatial applications."

    He is a land surveyor and a member of #maptime Denver, Rocky Mountain Map Society, NACIS, PLSC, Charles Close Society, and Open Street Map Foundation, just to name a few. He decided to share his passion with the world and start the project in May 2011 while living in Taiwan, and the rest is history.

    Patrick revealed that while the community was pretty stable in the past, everything changed the morning when Russia invaded Ukraine.

    "The subreddit usually has between 2,000 and 4,000 users at a given moment on a normal day. That number spiked to a peak of over 20,000 users looking for ... maps of the situation there," he told us.

    When it comes to the way people think about cartography, the founder of the subreddit believes it's currently going through a period of change.

    "The previous generation was accustomed to paper maps that they used to navigate. This required skills in orientation and awareness that are no longer necessary with digital maps on mobile devices. Whilst there are lots of articles that eulogize the loss of these skills, I don't think it's necessarily all bad," he explained.

    I wish they would flood any and every public ... thing the putin-friends of our furthest right of the relevant parties, the AfD, are conducting, and teach them some common sense. Ok, they're rightwingers leaning well into radical (not all members are radical, but you can't remain a member without at least finding the publicly known radicalism to be acceptable), so we cannot expect them to be of the brightest kind... But I don't see how it requires much thought or thinkability to understand that invading other countries, unprovoked and against every contract, promise and rights, is wrong by any and every means.

    In another Bored Panda interview, Patrick said that moderating the subreddit has always been about finding the right balance.

    "It is impossible to please everybody. If you are too laissez-faire you get a lot of low-effort and ugly submissions and the users complain. If you are too strict, then you risk alienating those who supply the content for the sub. I try to find a balance between these two extremes. Overall, I'm satisfied with the moderating and I don't foresee any changes in the immediate future," he said.

But now that I know the entire commonwealth of Massachusetts doesn't exist, I'm wondering what actually goes into those giant shots? Is this some kind of MK Ultra situation? Do I need a doctor?

    The popularity of this subreddit and, in turn, alternative maps, illustrates the way Chris Heffernan, a teacher of 20 years, approaches geography. Heffernan, who is a seventh-grade social science and math teacher at Jefferson Junior High School in Naperville, Illinois, said he no longer thinks about map quizzes when he thinks about geography class, but rather “human geography,” the study of culture, economy, and politics, which ends up affecting all of us.

    Many parts of the USA have applied a sports rule for 'justice' - three strikes and you are out. It results in great injustice, where people can be given huge sentences for relatively minor crimes. There is also a very large race component to the sentencing, and poverty.

    The only quibble I have with this is 'British Isles'. Eire/the Republic of Ireland most definitely does not agree to this term being used of their country. Eire is not part of the British Isles as Eire is not part of Britain. formally disavowed in September 2005 by the Irish Government when Foreign Minister Dermot Ahern stated: "The British Isles is not an officially recognised term in any legal or inter-governmental sense. It is without any official status.

    Violet is the only humane option. Illegal for the buyers. Sex work is almost always a form of abuse, not of empowerment and since it's near impossible to find out which sex worker is coerced and which one does it on their own free will (for the authorities AND the buyers in equal measure!) punishing the buyers is the only way. Also when someone is paying for sex they can't tell if the prostitute is being forced and thus they're ok with possibly committing rape.

    I see this a tad ... different. I'd not hesitate defend every european border that surrounds an area of humanism against any attack of less humanist invaders. I'd link it to ideas and values more than to country, because that's what really counts. But, if I'd be able to supply a service that's of value there, why not? If I were a Russian, given that I know and feel what I do now as a german, I would certainly NOT fight "for my country", but either get my a*s into safety, or get my a*s into Ukraine's service.

    Considering we have some of the best non-veg dishes, it is quite amusing to think that outsiders consider us just vegetarians.

    These comments make me sad. People actually don't know what D-Day or Operation Overlord are. THE most important battle in WWII. It was the beginning of Nazi Germany's downfall.

    Unfortunately, the ethics of Washington's hydro energy are sort of questionable. We're f*****g up a lot of native-owned rivers and natural ecosystems and trying to fix it. Salmon not going extinct is a bit more important than being the leading hydroelectric state

    This is because the human need for freedom is too big to make it punishable by law. This does not mean that you won't be searched for and reincarcerated when found, though. It just means that you won't be also prosecuted for escaping from jail.

    Interestingly, that 19% for the UK is the same as the percentage of Welsh people listed as being able to speak Welsh. Also, 1 in 5 brits recon they could maintain a conversation in French? That seems way too high.

    How is this "wealth" calculated? Just money or based on purchasing power? Here a good bread is between 3 - 4 euros, in other countries maybe 50 euro cents. Distributing only money would have a totally different wealth result.

    Hard to grasp, but that is truly a landslide victory, and they already had endured four years of trickle down BS. "Reaganomics" is literally what threw a few dozen million people into poverty, and yet, they STILL do the propaganda, and it STILL works.
