A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.

Rules:

Don’t be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.

We are agents of chaos I’ve created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named “mapporncirclejerk”

Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don’t message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.

Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.

No impersonating mods I can’t believe I had to make this rule.

No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.

Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say “take time to grow and come back when you are ready”.

Wyoming is also ranked in the Top 50 states, surprisingly.

It isn't, actually - it ranks 51st, just below Washington DC (which gets low marks for its lack of paperwork).

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago (3 children)

It also has the most Wyomingites.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

As a Wyomingite I hate it, godspeed sir

[–] sik0fewl@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

Are we sure it's not Colorado?

[–] ThunderclapSasquatch@startrek.website 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Holy shit, someone who knows its Wyomingite. You are rarer than we are

Lol, I guessed. There are only so many options, so I went with one that was less crappy.

I'm in the state with the highest per capita population

[–] excral@feddit.org 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So the state with the most headless people?

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 23 hours ago

we don't count those

[–] pinball_wizard@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 day ago

That's nothing. My apartment complex has less population than all fifty states combined!

[–] Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io 33 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And has just as many Senators as CA. WY population 590,169, CA population 39,530,000.

[–] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They really should put up a house vote to fix that

[–] Nycto@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I believe that by design the House vote is what fixes it. Having one body in the legislature that is population based and the other just based on statehood makes both things matter.

[–] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

Except we broke how the house was supposed to work by freezing the number of seats in 1929. This, subsequently, also broke the electoral college and the presidency, which further down the line broke the judiciary....

So the same congressmen who ushered in the great depression, also caused a century's worth of political damage that's is continually getting worse

[–] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Lol....that was the joke I was making

[–] Nycto@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Ah yes, I see that now. I missed your tone on the first pass.

Exactly, the Senate exists to keep larger states from running roughshod over smaller ones, the electoral college is the problem child

[–] affiliate@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago

on the other hand, wyoming also has just as many people per capita as every other state

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 37 points 2 days ago (1 children)

*Visits Wyoming*

It's much more crowded here than I expected.

Surprised they ran into each other.

Someone has to work at the gas station.

[–] Routhinator@startrek.website 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

What's with the phrasing here? If you combine the population of the other states that's a lot of people and of course Wisconsin has less.

I know what they are intending here, but what they intended and what they said don't line up at all.

[–] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

is joke

Look at what com you're in.

[–] Routhinator@startrek.website 1 points 1 day ago

Ahhhh now I see.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

It's using the format of presenting a surprising fact to present an obvious fact. It's intentionally silly.

[–] Soulg@ani.social 2 points 1 day ago

This is a joke community, and they subverted typical expectations by stating the obvious in a way that would be a surprising fact
