Largest religious denomination in the USA by county

Btw this doesn’t show atheism/irreligion, so like in Los Angeles, 60-70% of religious people are Catholic, it’s not that 60-70% of Angelenos are Catholic, just the ones who profess a religion.

anyone wonder why we pay for library cards if we i've in a different county? its literally a piece of paper and plastic sheets.

some libraries even make u pay for time on a. computer,

one library by me does that and its finny because they often rent out their pace outside , because its a nice pale for events, parties ect. like shouldn't that be implemented in the funding? like some of the interior looks like it hasn't been updated sine 96. like I KNOW that carpet haunts been cleaned, even the computers aren't new.

so where is all this money going?

its a COUNTY library -__-

and its in a wealthy county lol

likeeee..........

couple months ago (?) I decided to memorize all my state's counties with the excuse that the knowledge would be useful for visualizing plant distributions. What I've used it for so far:

Recognizing when neighborhoods have street naming schemes that are really just the counties

Killing 3-10 min playing the map game to review

Killing ~45 min trying to pin down what counties I've been to

Picturing the way the counties are laid out north -south or east-west to hasten sleep, or for maximum effect trying to remember what all counties are adjacent to a target county

Fungi and lichens...Two Toned Pholiota by Adam Swaine Via Flickr: Magical and mistrusted. Toadstools and mushrooms are associated with ancient taboos, dung, death and decomposition. But trees rely on fungi and we're just starting to understand how close this relationship is: great networks that link and support trees and woodland life. They come in dazzling shapes, colours and sizes; even working with other species to produce different organisms.

Arthur Lee – the world was a whole lot better off with him in it. https://pastdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/arthur-lee-love-live-1996.mp3 We could use the support: Become a Patron!

Common Chaffinch Norfolk Woodlands.. by Adam Swaine Via Flickr: Male chaffinches are colourful birds with an orange-pink breast and cheeks, grey-blue cap and orange-brown back. Females are much duller brown with hints of green and yellow.The Chaffinch is one of the most widespread and common birds in Britain and Ireland. Its patterned feathers help it blend in when feeding on the ground, so it's easiest to see when it flies, as a flash of white on the wings and white outer tail feathers is revealed. It's shy when it comes to bird feeders, preferring to hop about under the bird table or under the hedge. You'll usually hear Chaffinches before you see them, thanks to their loud song and range of calls
