This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Many people aren't represented in America, e.g., DC, Peurto Rico, people who were in prison. Taxation without representation doesn't exist in America.
