    I think blue states should bring in all in-house solutions to cut the middleman White House out of it. States rights!

      We did that with CARB and now the feds are trying to stop it after decades of other states signing on because it worked so well here in Cali.

        Throw in British Columbia and Alaska while you’re at it. Just take the entire west cost of North America.

        And what should be the east coast, since if the international date line didn’t do that weird curve at the end of the Aleutians, Alaska would be the northernmost, westernmost, and easternmost state.

Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.



Rules

  1. Don’t throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
