do u ever think about corn sweat; and the fact that a large percent of corn grown in Illinois, iowa, etc is grown for ethanol and biofuel; and how solar power would be so many times more effective per acre than this; and how like 90+% of so many rare ecosystems in those states was drained for farm and suburbs (in many cases previously farms).

AND you could still have native plants around and even under the solar panels.

As many as 10,000 slaves followed a clandestine Southern Underground Railroad to Mexico. —To date, many Black Mexicans from the Texas area retrace a portion of the same route their African American ancestors followed in 1850 when they escaped slavery. —Descendants of slaves who escaped across the southern border observe Texas’s emancipation holiday with their own unique traditions in the village of Nacimiento. —Slave hunters would patrol the southern border for escapees, led by the Texas Rangers but the Mexican army would be there waiting for them (the slave hunters) to turn them away.

This is also why Texas decided they wanted to be part of the US all of a sudden.

It wasn't some kind of upswell of American Patriotism and MUH FREEDUMS. It was rich slaveowners deciding they'd rather start a war than give up their slaves.

things dan howell is too anxious to do:

admit to the dentist that he forgot his appointment

talk to someone he went to school with (will hide in the narrow crack behind a photo booth until they’re gone)

tell a child he can’t buy an axe

things dan howell is apparently perfectly capable of

2. Pocket money brailler - A device that allows you to imprint braille onto paper notes, indicating their value.

3. Liquid level indicator - A device hung on the edge of a container with metal prongs that detect when liquid has reached it.
