The breast size and obesity maps are directly correlated with prosperity, and probably with family size as well. More $$ = more food and it also = more leisure time, which means people are doing things other than screwing when they've got free time. This includes getting women and girls educated, and putting off marriages and primigravida (first pregnancy).

The mercator one was trippy. Knew about Trimountaine. :)
Once Ixalla was ready, Tathrelle cornered her. “Before we leave for work, I just want to tell you, I’m sorry. I guess I sort of shut down last night. I know you were in pain and I wasn’t too terribly supportive.” There was a wall covering in the main part of their chamber, something that Tathrelle hadn’t noticed before. She stared at it for a second and then shook her head.

Outside, a disembodied voice announced from a hidden speaker, “It is time to travel to all daytime places of employment. Transportation sleighs are available and ready. Citizens are encouraged to thank the sleigh drivers at the end of a successful transport. The government recommends haste, and requests that all pregnant persons be given preference for seating in their designated areas.”

A little distracted, Ixalla just asked, “Pain?”

Incredibly cool. Except the "World According to America" maps which seemed a bit... little? Definitely out of place.

Otherwise, very darned cool. I want a print outs of the Pangea Map and Inverted Earth. Those were my favorite.

The US has been slipping in freedom of the press in the last 10 years. Mostly due to a compliant press that's neurotic about access. They allow themselves to be restricted in exchange for access. And we also have an increasingly hostile environment for those who push stories that haven't been approved the corporate elite and government.
