This is mainly because Congress will not increase the size of the House of Representatives. If we were to give Wyoming a single representative and used that as the bar for how many citizens a representative should actually represent then California would have 82 members in the House instead of 53. California would be worth 84 points in the Electoral College while Wyoming would still only be worth 3.

I don't understand why people are so addicted to their phones they literally can't even take 15 seconds to concentrate on pissing anymore.
In addition to that you're at a row of urinals with a camera out. It's just straight up weird to me.

Older people may watch a ridiculous amount of television but I've only seen young people staring down at their phones while using the urinal.

When the jackpot reached a certain amount, say 500 million, they could switch from a winner takes all to essentially a raffle with 500 winners. I think it would greatly increase the number of tickets purchased when the threshold was met.

No. If you live in a democracy then the tax money is yours. You are the government. You have every right to complain about what they are doing with your money.

The buds that are flourishing now in Japan won’t open again in the spring, but fortunately, the proportion of blossoms that have opened in recent days is relatively small. So, Wada tells NHK, the unseasonal bloom is not likely to affect the splendor of the cherry blossoms next spring.

You already have to have an ID to get a job. Who can't do this once in their life?

Isn't it more likely that they had a class limit of 50 and not that the 750 didn't have the chops to become a software engineer?

I've noticed a lot of my older purchased music on Amazon Music is now unplayable without any notice to me. Usually the complete album is gone but sometimes it leaves me with just a few of the songs still playable from the album.

I find myself using !g, !a, !w, and !mw the most. I like that I can go directly to these services instead of a search page.

Most countries don't even have have a width of 1000 miles so I find this claim questionable.
