conulyHow awful! for the Mexican/American/Brazilian flags to represent Spanish/English/Portuguese, those aren't the original homes of those languages!
Unspoken is the assumption that in Spanish or Mexico (and so on) all native-born residents speak and should speak Spanish (or whatever) as their first and/or primary language. Basque? Catalan? Mixtec? What's that? Everybody in Greece speaks Greek, duh!

Two-by-fours are not actually 2-by-4—here’s why (Shrinkage, in both senses.)
Alternatives to Heterosexual Pairings, Brought to You By Non-Human Animals
Butterflies Really Seem To Like Drinking Cougar Pee
How One Number Could Change the Lives of People With a Rare Disorder
France is bringing back mandatory national service for all 16-year-olds
Bringing Gay Pride to Africa's last absolute monarchy
You're probably washing your hands all wrong, study says
Pregnancy Discrimination Is Rampant Inside America’s Biggest Companies
Leisure reading in the U.S. is at an all-time low (Who the heck has nearly three hours to devote to television every day? Unless a good chunk of that is background TV, which I personally abhor.)
No One Knows How Long Legal Immigrants Will Have to Wait
Why Do We Value Country Folk More Than City People?
A Visual History of the U.S. Census (I hadn't thought of the fact that gaming the census using disenfranchised prisoners would affect the EC, but of course it does. We'll just add that to the reason Trump "won", along with gerrymandering, voter suppression, and of course Russia, probably.)
Trump appointee guts UN document on racism, says leaders don't have duty to condemn hate speech (I. Want. Out. Barring that, I'd be happy if they all left, preferably without leaving a forwarding address.)
Trump teases his Supreme Court pick, says he’ll announce it July 9 (If the man insists on making everything into must-see TV, maybe we can train him to only do good things by only reporting on good things. Like how you train a dog to sit when somebody's at the door rather than barking and lunging.)
The supreme court has taken a sledgehammer to the New Deal
Why Are So Many Political Parties Blowing Up?
The whole world sees it: Trump is doing lasting damage to the global order that made the U.S. a superpower
A plan to keep drug users from shooting up in public restrooms — and why it may be a bad idea
