Anything is possible when the premise is false... Lee(mur). '98. She/he. Queer. Lutheran. Math PhD student at UMN. B.S. Pure Mathematics with minors in astronomy, German, and political science from RHIT. UTC-5, American Midwest. Vaguely math/STEM/academia/study oriented blog. I'm mostly running a queue so I don't dump a bunch of the same stuff at once. My avatar is me (an early draft). My header is my own art. Here, you will find elements of the set of things about which I am unironically passionate: {math, art, nature, science, dance, social justice, puns, theology, space, photography, language, typography, storytelling, political science, psychology, astronomy, philosophy, comedy, literature, cats, music} Twitter: vacuou5ly_tru3, TikTok: vacuously_true, Instagram: vacuously.true, Website: vacuously-true.com

my one superpower is that i can instantly tell when someone who doesn’t use the word “ya’ll” in their day-to-day speech starts using it to be sanctimonious and folksy on the internet

i can tell you don’t either OP or you’d put the apostrophe in “y'all” where it fucking belongs

Now that’s a fuckin callout

there is a demon in your house named CARBON MONOXIDE. he enchants your mind with confusion and your body with exhaustion. you need to call a powerful exorcist named HVAC TECHNICIAN

Okay how about this. What's the best Midwest Metropolitan Statistical Area?

Here's the ten most populous metros in the Midwest, as listed in this Wikipedia article. Vote for your favorite! Check the article if you need more info about what cities or towns are included in each metro. They're listed below by the largest city in the metro, the state(s) the metro area is in, and the population of that metro area.

But there's a twist! Once the poll is closed I'll scale the results proportional to the populations of each metro to get final results. I want to know which metro will get the most love proportional to its population!

Final results! Here's the percent of the vote each metro got, divided by its population, and sorted with the true winner at the top.

Minneapolis: 4.92

Chicago: 3.78

Milwaukee: 3.56

St. Louis: 2.93

Cleveland: 2.71

Detroit: 2.30

Columbus: 2.09

Kansas City: 2.09

Cincinnati: 1.83

Indianapolis: 1.71

"If you can't reblog this bc you're racist / homophobic / transphobic / (whatever), just unfollow me now!" "Wow I can't believe I lost seven followers over this post, good riddance racists / homophobes / transphobes / (whatever)!" Did you consider that perhaps I unfollowed you because I don't like guilt reblog bait on my dash :) Did you consider that :)
