The idea of checking the odometer is ridiculous. If I hop over to OR, which I do daily, those miles would count.. likewise road-trips to Canada, ID, etc.. and no way I’m putting a gps tracker on my car..

Conversely, why did these countries become divided, but China and Taiwan did not?

Why did the US and most of the world institute a One China policy? Given that the west/east had no qualms about recognizing 2 German governments (East and West), and 2 Korean governments (South and North), what was the thinking/philosophy of recognizing only 1 Chinese government? Couldn’t they have just recognized both the Nationalists and the Maoists either once the Nationalists fled to Formosa/Taiwan, or in the early 70s when they switched over to the communists couldn’t they have just also added the communists instead of having them replace the nationalists?

Ah Pullman. Live in SW WA, but am thinking of heading up to Pullman to see Hasan Minhaj live there this weekend! But it’s a 6 hr drive…

I drove up 101 to Port Angeles today morning and can confirm the coast was foggy AF until after noonish. But it was still incredibly beautiful like what you saw!

I grew up in NH and MA, been here a few years now. I just went back to MA for a short trip and had to drive across the state. Holy shit had I forgotten how intense driving is there, massholes for sure would never let anyone else in, speed at crazy speeds, and lane change abruptly without signals. While I was fine, as I’d cut my teeth learning to drive there, I’m glad my wife gets the gentler WA experience lol..
