Guess the US city (min. 50k) by its racial demographics?

@OleGriersy It's up there with New Yorkers' bizarre but unshakeable conviction that they're the only city with convenience stores

@Young_Anglican "Protestant Baltics retvrned"???
The majority of the Estonian population is not protestant. Estonians are non belivers

It is interesting to study which countries had large resurgences after the fall of Communism. E.g. Protestant Baltics retvrned, but not East Germany. Catholic Poland Retvrned, but not Czechia.
Might be worth a sociological and theological study.

It is a historical fact that whenever the Church is persecuted, 9/10 times, it comes out stronger

2 hours to 1 hour 30 is a 25% reduction
Dominic McGregor@DominicMcGregor
We don’t need faster trains to London. I deeply believe that. The difference from 2 hours to 1 hour 30 is nominal. What we need is a better experience. There’s a psychological concept called temporal perception. Time feels longer when you’re frustrated and shorter when you’re absorbed. That buffering wheel. The email that won’t send. The Teams call dropping mid-sentence. That’s not a 2 hour journey. That feels like 4. Give every passenger reliable WiFi and a plug socket and the journey shrinks not on the timetable, but in the mind. Now @elonmusk & @Starlink can now do this. So why are we waiting. HS2 cost billions to save 30 minutes. Better WiFi would give that time back every single day.

@mindofprospect no shit there’s a lot of sampling. doesn’t mean there’s not also new artists
English
@EFCJakeWY All the garage songs I hear now are remixes and samples of older songs, where’s the new artists?
English
Garage, funky house (proper) drill and Afro swing should all still be significant but they aren’t
KABUTO@kabutosick
UK music has a problem with keeping legacy sound fresh without evolving into something new, idk what it is but our churn rate of genres reaallyy pisses me off

@AnonSocials @BenProcter they will be replaced with long distance commuter and regional services. intercity services will move to hs2
English
@BenProcter People still don't seem to have realised that there will likely be quite substantial service cuts on the WCML when HS2 starts now. No chance the 390s are replaced with anything when they reach end of life.
English
HS2 was never about speed. It was and remains about capacity.

I want to be so offended by this,but honestly I prefer red sauce on a bacon sarnie and I do love a sit down piss so fair fucks you've got is
Josh Timms@Henni_Papenfuss
If you have ketchup on a bacon sarnie rather than brown sauce there's a 99% chance you sit down to piss.

@EFCJakeWY @Rothmus I’ll keep the current system. Fuck you and fuck trains.

@riotnbeck @notchrisvolpe And the numbers have just risen since then driving in NYC is not the niche thing these anti car cultists try to make it seem 🤷🏾nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/10/22/hea…

Lmao when you’re clearly not from here bc you think Staten Island, Whitestone, Howard Beach and the Irish Riviera are black neighborhoods 😭 like please be so serious and stop talking on NYC

@notchrisvolpe oh no, how dare Black and POC people drive

@EFCJakeWY @Rothmus What if I want to leave at 12:36? And there isn’t a train available
English
@cringe_npc @Rothmus you don’t need a train to leave every 6.5 minutes as 1 train can carries 4x as many people as a plane
English
@Rothmus I wonder if a train will leave the station every 6.5 minutes? How many times will it stop? How long will it take versus showing up the the airport an hour early and flying to SFO? I doubt if any of these factors are even remotely comparable.
English
@AlsoPestiEsti A play on words, then. Who gives a shit.

Suddenly realizing people outside of the Upper Midwest probably didn't realize "ICE OUT" was a pun.

Unless I’m mistaken, Minneapolis Parks has switched away from the usual Ice Out declaration to “Ice Off” this year

@lavueltaalnido @MrGeorgSplatoon @mapadevelador @VillainLither @its_hipolita explain why the average argentinian is white as fuck then
English
@MrGeorgSplatoon @mapadevelador @VillainLither @its_hipolita No, it was a Spanish colony and behaved like other Spanish colonies. Settler colonialism is a more defining feature of the US-Canada process

Jack D 🏳️🌈@JackDunc1
I’m a lefty anti-imperialist, but Argentina is wrong on the Falklands The islands have never had an Argentinian population. Falklanders predate Argentina, and 99% voted to stay British This isn’t a colonial issue. It’s used by ARG's far right to distract from domestic problems.
