Here's the full original comic page of the map:
This is from an online comic called Stand Still, Stay Silent. Year 0 is the year, well, the year everything changed for the Nordic countries.
It's a gorgeous story, for any who might be interested!
I'm looking for one that allows handwriting to text, if anyone knows of one.
I think you're talking about "at-will" employment, which allows the employer or employee to terminate employment for no reason at any time. Only Montana doesn't have that (unfortunately for the rest of us), and employers must show good cause for termination after a set probationary period. "Right-to-work" means that you can't be required to join a union or pay fair share fees as a requirement of employment. 26 states have this on the books.
I live in a state with both laws, and it sucks as much as you'd imagine... (mainly because it's fairly indicative of other issues throughout the state).
Only cosmetics are monetized, no pay to win, etc.

I'm curious to see how it shakes out after beta ends.
The video mentions how "y'all" has become a more nationwide word due to its usefulness.
They mention that in the article, in passing. "WIRED, for context, lists 164 partners."
I recommend Pati Jinich's recipes for anything she makes. She has both a flour and a corn tortilla recipe.
Processional: "She's the One" by World Party for groom and family, "Book of Love" by Peter Gabriel for bride. It ended up being perfectly timed, because I was able to sing the last verse to my favorite person when I got to him (which is about wanting to give each other wedding rings)
Recessional: "Ugly Day" by Five Iron Frenzy
It's a bit of a confusing history. The AT Protocol for decentralization was a side project of Twitter that later spun off, grew, and became Bluesky.
Academic librarians are already here with prompt engineering to obtain (more) accurate responses, particularly with finding keywords to use, etc. Maybe surprising to some, but faculty are our biggest requesters for how to do it "for research." We also give a bunch of caveats, because we don't want to be tracking down hundreds of fake references from AI either.
With Pebble shutting down already, I'm going to stick with Beehaw where it ends up. The ethos around discussion and understanding is the reason I have this account.
We switched to Duo, too. Making that plan unlimited was the las barrier to my spouse jumping aboard the Kagi train. We're in for the yearly Duo sub as of this evening!
Minnesota, hands down. I enjoyed all the other Midwestern states I have lived or do live in, but I really want to move back to MN for the gorgeous natural beauty. My home state of IL is beautiful, especially along the river road in west central and southwest IL.
I love it so much. And the crab is their little fren, and they go out riding on the open range together to gather flowers and pollen. Best buds.
I thought it was going okay: I got 6 hours of sleep (unheard of!), I woke up on time, and work was moving along smoothly. But then... my cat got sick and a not-beloved coworker decided to be annoying, so I hit a snag for a while there. I'm back at it again, having survived the issue with my cat AND the co-irker, and the day is starting to look up again. Here's hoping that the trend continues up tomorrow...
