Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

just moved from Tennessee to Alberta, can confirm it's bluer up here

Hey! Welcome to Alberta! We're not all crazy blue voters here, just a disappointing amount.

Took me a second to remember that the US is the weird one with the red conservative party.

..that is also how I took it haha. really gotta get the us political dichotomy out of my mind now that I'm an Albertan.

And replace it with the Canadian political dichotomy, where blue is red and red is blue! Oh, and we have Orange too, which doesn't get the votes it needs.

And welcome to Alberta!

Hold up, are you saying democrats are crazy?

The colors are swapped in the USA. Blue = conservative party, red = liberal party in most of the world.

the us follows the star wars color scheme. red for genocidal maniacs and blue for elitist bureaucrats.

that being said I still recommend people in the US vote dem like their lives depend on it, because it very much seems like they do, then hold those fuckers accountable when they side with the billionaires anyway.
