  • No mention of the bastard Horse Fly that chewed me up while I was strimming yesterday. I reckon the only ones I like less than the Horse Fly are the flea and the tick, and the last only because they’re disease-ridden little nightmares. That said, I’ve never been bitten by a bedbug or stung by a scorpion, so they may well be bastards too











  • I’m pretty impressed, considering both our land area and population, there’s about 40x more space in the us and another 240,000 or so people. China and the US are 3rd and 4th largest respectively in terms of land, 2nd and 3rd in population and 2nd and 1st by GDP

    We’re 80th and 22nd in area and people, and while we’re 6th in global GDP, that’s still 1/10th of the US’s.
    I’d like the square to be bigger, but the graphic would look a lot different if it was total renewable power, renewable as a percentage of total power, or even simply wind, as being an island we lean toward wind far more than China and the US. Maybe OP can give us those statistics as graphics?
