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.

Ohio and Florida are thinly populated? Texas has a large area but also population.

Ohio is mostly corn and "Hell is real" billboards.

Yeah but it also has the 7th highest population in the country and a higher population density than California, somehow.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

California is also big.

Just over half of U.S. adults (52%) say they favor allowing public school teachers to lead their classes in prayers that refer to Jesus

Nationwide, a slightly larger share of Americans say they favor allowing teacher-led prayers referencing God (57%)

It's right there in OP.
