@dbsb3233 @StatisticUrban western sprawl is denser than the equivalent eastern sprawl: the LA metro area as a whole is denser than the NY metro, even though LA doesn’t have anything close to a NYC-like core)

[Griggor @Griggor2]

@dbsb3233 @StatisticUrban That may be where we’re talking past each other, then. Going off of the census definition, suburbs are urban (which I agree with based on economic and cultural connections). And I definitely don’t dispute that the West has relatively more post-WWII car-dependent sprawl (though,

@dbsb3233 @StatisticUrban farmland and towns in the West (though we would probably also have more metropolises!).

@dbsb3233 @StatisticUrban an urban area than is someone from the other regions. Our handful of big cities are disproportionately populous compared to the countryside/small towns. You’re right that if the Mojave weren’t a desert, or if the Rockies were more like the Appalachians, then we’d have more

[Griggor @Griggor2]

@dbsb3233 @StatisticUrban It’s not that the *landmass* is the most urban- that is certainly the opposite of the truth. Rather, the *people* in the Western states are the most urbanized in the country. Westerners are more likely to live in a large metro than other Americans

@StatisticUrban @skywaker9 Paradoxically the most urbanized region in the country, because there are so few small towns and such a thinly-populated countryside

@DJProfessorL Fat in a way that hasn’t been seen for a thousand years. Biblically fat. A real Iron Age chubster

@TheMonkeyJungle best charcuterie I ever had was maker’s mark goo, babybell cheese shell, and the cardboard around a wheel of brie

@thamoonman_ Good lord, did the western Slavs kill your father or something? Why would you do that to them?

@excathedraa @hackableanimal The longterm result of this trend is 100% unemployment with the proles forced to accept sterilization and sign DNRs in exchange for a UBI & if we’re lucky, a nice Matrix to occupy our time

@2024dion be built over the remaining freeways and new high-speed railways. The rest of this land will belong to the bison.

[Griggor @Griggor2]

@2024dion IMO we need to rewild almost everything between the 100th meridian W. and the Rockies. The most agriculturally productive 5% of that land can remain, as well as towns with non-extractive economic bases, but greenfield development will be banned. Enormous wildlife overpasses will

@PokeMarr specificity on the other. It’s completely failed at achieving concrete results and has mostly just made everyone online more parochial and sensitive

[Griggor @Griggor2]

@PokeMarr labeled ‘idpol’ or ‘woke 1’. A strategy of raising the salience of various social identities, theoretically in order to ensure equity & ultimately spread egalitarianism, that was completely bowled over by rank chauvinism: ethnic axe-grinding on one hand and sub cultural hyper-
